Contact Information
The contact information in your ECFMG record consists of your e-mail address, your address of residence, your
telephone number, and your fax number (if applicable). ECFMG will send information on the status of your applications
by e-mail. You will also need an e-mail address to use ECFMG’s
on-line services
. Be sure to include a full and
complete address for your residence. ECFMG will use your address of residence as your mailing address. Certain
ECFMG correspondence, including your Standard ECFMG Certificate, requires a full mailing address.
You should ensure that the contact information in your ECFMG record is current. You can check and update your
contact information on-line using
OASIS
or the
MyECFMG mobile app
. You cannot submit changes to your contact
information to ECFMG by e-mail. ECFMG will not process changes to contact information received from any person
other than the applicant.
Changing your e-mail address using OASIS or MyECFMG does not update your e-mail address in your e-newsletter
subscription(s). If you are subscribed to one or more of ECFMG’s
e-mail newsletters
, such as The ECFMG
®
Reporter
or ECHO News, and your e-mail address changes, you must update your e-mail address for each e-newsletter. To
update your e-mail address in your e-newsletter subscription(s), visit the E-Newsletters page in the Resources section
of the ECFMG website, click on the newsletter(s) you receive, unsubscribe your old e-mail address, and subscribe
your new e-mail address.
To protect the privacy of applicants, ECFMG will e-mail applicant-specific information only to the e-mail address in the
applicant’s ECFMG record. If your e-mail inquiry requires a specific response, you must send your inquiry from the
e-mail address in your ECFMG record.
All correspondence with ECFMG, including e-mails, will become a part of your permanent ECFMG record.
For further information regarding ECFMG’s data collection and privacy practices, please refer to our
Privacy Policy

Forfeiture of Funds
Payment
Full payment is due at the time you submit an application or request a service. If your application/request is rejected,
any payment received with that application/request will be credited to your ECFMG financial account.
Funds in an applicant’s ECFMG financial account will be available for a period of two years to pay for
applications/requests. Any funds not used during a two-year period will be forfeited to ECFMG; this means that the
applicant will lose those funds. See
Forfeiture of Funds
in Your ECFMG Financial Account.
If you owe money to ECFMG at the time that your application/request is processed, ECFMG will apply the payment
included with your application/request to the amount that you owe. Any money that is left after this will be used to pay
for the application/request. If there is not enough money remaining to pay for the application/request, your
application/request will be rejected.
If you submit a paper request and do not include payment, or if the payment you include is not sufficient to cover all
fees, we will use the money in your ECFMG financial account to pay for the request. If the money in your account is
not sufficient to cover all fees, your request will be rejected.
You can check the status of your ECFMG financial account and make on-line payments using
OASIS
or the
MyECFMG mobile app
. ECFMG’s on-line payment is secured using industry-standard encryption technology.
