New Owners: Please include a W9 with your ownership change request to avoid issues with your year-end 1099. 

We encourage all owners to enroll in direct deposit. If you would like to receive your monthly royalty payment by ACH, you must first register to receive your monthly statements on EnergyLink at www.EnergyLink.com and also complete and return the Direct Deposit Form directly to us at RevenueRelations@texasarc.com.

Checks are not issued until the balance due to an owner reaches $25 USD.

Revenue checks are typically disbursed on or about the 20th of each month, as long as the amount is above the $25 minimum.

United States Postal Service (USPS) delivery is the most common reason for delayed receipt of payments made by check.  If you have recently moved, please visit our change of address section for instructions on how to update your address on file.

If neither of these applies, please email us at RevenueRelations@texasarc.com.  You may be required to submit a written authorization to stop payment and reissue the check.

If your check has not been received or if you suspect that it may have been lost or misplaced, please email us at RevenueRelations@texasarc.com to request a stop payment and reissuance.

Monthly revenue check details are uploaded to www.EnergyLink.com. This secure and integrated website can be used to retrieve your statements and check details.

Following IRS guidelines, 1099-MISC forms are mailed on or before January 31st of each year. If you do not receive your 1099-MISC by February 16th or if the information on your 1099-MISC is incorrect, please email us at RevenueRelations@texasarc.com.
