Is it safe to give my credit card information?
Credit card payments are being processed through a financial institution with the security and encryption specific to managing online transactions.
How will I know if I am enrolled?
Immediately after submitting your registration, you will receive a receipt in your email. The receipt indicates that your credit card has been charged and your program choices are ready to be processed. The processing will take place in the order in which the requests are received. NISRA staff will also be processing the mail & walk-in registrations in sync with the online registrations each day. Once your registration has been processed, you will receive additional emails with the status of each program you selected.
Please Note: Non-resident registrations will be processed in the order in which they were received, once the non-resident registration period begins.
What will happen if I am put on a waiting list?
The NISRA staff will monitor the program capacity as we always have, and will open up more spots if the leadership & transportation resources permit. Your credit card will be charged for your program request; however, it will be promptly credited if NISRA cannot accommodate the request.

I don't have access to a computer at home; how can I use this service?
Most local libraries provide computer stations for use by the public.
Why can't I fill out the Annual Information Update & other forms online and transmit them electronically to NISRA?
While the NISRA network has a high level of security, it does not have the encryption necessary to protect the sensitive medical & personal information contained on the forms. We recommend that this type of data not be transmitted over the internet.
Can I use my mobile device to register online?
Our web site is suitable for mobile devices and online registration.
