Login.gov & eVoucher
All attorneys and experts must have a Login.gov account to sign in to CJA eVoucher. If you do not already have a Login.gov account, you will need to create an account, complete the identity verification process, and set up a multi-factor authentication method before being able to access CJA eVoucher. For users with an existing Login.gov account, you will be able to link your account to your CJA eVoucher Single Login Profile the first time you sign in.
Single Login Profile
Your eVoucher Single Login Profile will be linked to Login.gov to login to eVoucher. If you have more than one eVoucher account, you will be able to link them to a single login and switch between accounts from within eVoucher without having to maintain separate logins.
Vendor Management System (VMS)
Beginning March 15, 2025, all attorneys and experts must register with the Vendor Management System (VMS) and set up at least one payment account with their tax and banking information. Vouchers submitted for payment after March 15, 2025, will be paid via EFT to the payment account on file. The first time a user logs into eVoucher on or after March 15, 2025, they will be prompted to register for VMS.
Vendor and payment account information in VMS will not be available for use in CJA eVoucher until it passes the IRS TIN and name verification. It can take up to 96 hours to receive an email from Vendor manager confirming “IRS TIN and Name successfully matched IRS Records.” If the TIN/Name verification with the IRS fails, users can access the IRS online to request their EIN information at this link: https://www.irs.gov/businesses/employer-identification-number#lostormisplaced. Alternatively, users can call the IRS Business & Specialty Tax Line at 800-829-4933 and ask the IRS to search for their EIN.
