IRS Special Education assigns User IDs and passwords to one special education contact person and one district data coordinator (DDC) in each school district and other entities required to report data through the SIRS. These User IDs and passwords are used to view, verify, and certify data included in the Special Education Verification Reports. Only designated contacts can verify/certify the data in these reports. New contacts who require a User ID and password must contact IRS Special Education at datasupport@nysed.gov or (518) 474-7965.

Data Submitted Through SIRS
To view/certify the Special Education Verification Reports you must:
- Click on 2011–12 school year on the menu bar.
- Select “October Verification Reports” or “End of the Year Verification Reports”.
- Review each report and read the heading above each report that describes the criteria for students to be included in the report.
- Review the list of included students and the list of excluded students for the corresponding verification report to determine if all eligible students are included and the information submitted for included and excluded students is complete and accurate.
- If changes are needed, revise your student management systems and work with a representative of your RIC or large city school district to make corrections in Level 1 data warehouse within the verification time period (prior to certification due date). RICs and large city school districts may establish their own deadlines so that they can transmit the data to Level 2 by the verification deadline.
- The certification buttons are on the bottom of each verification report. The accurate certification button option is availbale from the date of the first refresh for districts to be able to certify their data as complete and accurate early.
- After the electronic certification is completed for VR1-9 reports, a printed copy of the Certification and Assurance Form with the superintendent’s or chief administrative officer’s signature must be sent to IRS Special Education at the address printed on the certification form. This form is available under the 2011–12 school year on the navigation bar and then October 5, 2011 Verification Reports.
