How much will port workers be charged for a TWIC?

The fee for TWIC will be $132.50 and it is valid for five years. Workers with current, comparable background checks will pay a reduced fee of $105.25. If workers are eligible to pay the lower price, their TWIC will expire 5 years from the date of the comparable credential (additional information is provided in the next question). The cost of a replacement TWIC, if the original is lost, stolen or damaged is $60.

If I have a comparable assessment, how can I determine which fee is more economical -- the reduced fee or the full, 5 year fee?

It is most beneficial for applicants who will use a comparable security threat assessment and pay the reduced fee to do so within 12 months of receiving the comparable threat assessment. After 12 months, it is more cost effective to pay the full fee for TSA to complete the security threat assessment and issue a TWIC with an expiration date 5 years from the date of issuance.

What are the methods of payment?

Payment must be made with credit card (Visa® or MasterCard® only), money order, or certified/cashier's check. Checks should be made payable to Lockheed Martin. An additional option has been provided through the use of company purchased pre-paid debit cards. For companies choosing to use the pre-paid option, please visit http://www.twiccard.com.

In all cases, payment will be made at the enrollment center at the beginning of the enrollment process.

What is the pre-paid debit card for the TWIC Program?

This method of payment is a prepaid Visa® card and is intended for employers who wish to purchase TWICs for their employees. They may be purchased in bulk and are redeemable at any TWIC enrollment center. The website for additional information or purchasing them is at http://www.twiccard.com.

What is the fee for a replacement card?

The card replacement fee (for lost, stolen, or damaged TWICs) is $60.

Message From President - January 2011
As I prepared to write my first article for the NJMTA membership as the acting President, my thoughts are focused on the recent tragedy that occurred in Arizona where a Congressman was seriously wounded and 6 others murdered at a political rally. I find myself asking just what is happening to our country.
