Minn. R. Part 8280.0020
The date and time of filing for a financing statement is determined under this part depending on the method of delivery.
The time of filing for a financing statement delivered by personal delivery, courier delivery, or postal service delivery at the filing office is the earlier of the time the financing statement is accepted for filing or the next close of office hours following the time of delivery.
The time of filing for a financing statement delivered after July 1, 2001, by electronic mail or telecopier delivery to the filing office's electronic mail address or the filing office's fax filing telephone number is, notwithstanding the time of delivery, the earlier of the time the financing statement is accepted for filing or the next close of office hours following the time of delivery.
Financing statements may, if the service is available, be entered online after July 1, 2002, as described in part 8280.0270. The time of filing of a financing statement delivered by Web page data entry is the time that the financing statement has been accepted by the filing office computer system for filing and at which that acceptance is acknowledged by that system and the data is confirmed by the submitter.
