When to submit

​

USFS only accepts protocol submissions for test credit within 14 days of the event. Your skater must be registered for test credit through MFSCH, and all required paperwork must be submitted before that deadline.

​

The Test Chair is a volunteer who may be traveling or have other commitments but will make every effort to process your request promptly. While not required, it is strongly encouraged to notify the Test Chair at test@memorialfsch.org in advance of the event if you plan to request test credit using an IJS protocol.

 

Submit your request as soon as possible after the event and allow at least 72 hours for processing. Do not wait until the last day. If the information is not processed within the 14-day window, your skater will need to participate in another event and resubmit for test credit, as USFS strictly enforces this policy.

Required Documents

For MFSCH members who would like to request test credit using their IJS Protocol, please provide the following documentation: These are the required documents that need to be submitted/uploaded with the registration 

​
