Rules and regulations for sending a Virgin Islands Mechanics Lien
In the US Virgin Islands, a mechanic's lien must be filed within 90 days from last furnishing labor and/or materials to a construction project. This deadline marks the end of this 90 day period, and your lien is due. If the project is bonded, the deadline is reduced to 60 days. To calculate this date, add your last furnishing date as the "Date of Last Furnishing to a Project with a Payment Bond."
After completing the Virgin Islands Mechanics Lien Form, you must deliver it to the appropriate parties required by statute. Notices are typically served on the property owner and, for sub-tier parties, the general contractor. However, depending on the type of notice, it can be helpful to send notices to anyone else who is in charge of your payment, like a lender or surety company on the project.
