If I use MM-SEAS to submit my application, do I still need to physically go to the REC?

No, MM-SEAS will handle the entire USCG application submission process for you. After you've completed all of the steps and you've clicked the "Submit With MM-SEAS" button, the MM-SEAS staff will take over. We will review all of your paperwork double checking for errors. If it's good to go, we will create a perfect CG-719B form for you to electronically sign inside of MM-SEAS. Once the CG-719B is signed, we will pay the federal fees on your behalf and submit a perfect application for you to the USCG Regional Exam Center.

We then work directly with the USCG if there are any issues along the way. We are by your side until you are holding your new USCG License.

We hope this made your life a little easier and if you have other questions the MM-SEAS team is always here to help!

MM-SEAS is free to use on your own and if you need some more personalized help you can upgrade to MM-SEAS Pro inside of the site.

No matter what, when you are ready to submit your application, you can choose to have the MM-SEAS staff create a perfect application, handle the USCG application fees and work with the USCG on your behalf to resolve any issues for a flat fee of $349 or you can choose to submit on your own.
