**Importer Security Filing**

**Status Advisory**

Presented in this chapter are Importer Security Filing (ISF) Processing
Results output records for communicating the status of an ISF.

### Processing Results

The processing results notify an automated ISF filer of the status of an
ISF and whether an AMS bill of lading has been matched to the ISF, e.g.
"On File" or "Not On File". Problems typically occur if the bill number
submitted with the ISF data is incorrect or not on file. When an ISF is
not matched with a bill, the following messages are generated at
predetermined intervals:

-   Immediately following the filing of an Importer Security Filing

-   Five (5) days after the original file date of the an Importer
    Security Filing

-   Twenty (20) days after the original file date of the an Importer
    Security Filing

-   Thirty (30) days after the original file date of the an Importer
    Security Filing

If an ISF is matched to a bill at any time prior to the 30-day deadline,
a status notification will be generated and transmitted to the ISF
filer.

***Input***: There are no ISF Status Advisory processing results input
records.

***Output***: Record Identifiers SA10, SA30, SA50 are the mandatory bill
of lading processing results output records.

The application identifier on Record Identifier B is SA. For additional
information on Record Identifier B, refer to the Application Control
chapter of this document.

**Record Identifier SA10 (Output)**

This is a mandatory cargo release bill of lading processing results
output record that provides data pertaining to the Filer Code and the
Importer of Record Number. The SA10 record occurs once.

##### Note 1

CBP will assign a unique ISF Transaction Number to an Importer Security
Filing when it has been accepted. The ISF Transaction Number is returned
in the output response for an ISF (i.e. SN output responses) and the ISF
Status Notification (i.e. SA output message). The format of the ISF
Transaction Number is as follows:

> FFF-CCYYNNNNNNN , where
>
> FFF = Filer Code,
>
> CCYY = Calendar Year, such as 2008, and
>
> NNNNNNN = Numeric Sequence Number

**Record Identifier SA20 (Output)**
