Bernalillo County Shifts to New IPRA Portal, Sets Feb 27 Shutdown of Old System

Bernalillo County is rolling out a new IPRA request system, closing NextRequest on Feb 27 and launching JustFOIA on March 2.

Bernalillo County residents will soon have a new online platform for filing public records requests. County officials will phase out the current system to boost transparency and response times.

The public can submit and monitor Inspection of Public Records Act (IPRA) requests through the JustFOIA portal starting March 2. Officials say the new system aims to streamline submissions, shorten response times, improve tracking, and increase visibility in handling public records requests.

The county’s existing IPRA request portal, NextRequest, will permanently close at noon on February 27, 2026. A replacement system, JustFOIA, will officially launch on March 2, 2026.

The county will continue to process all IPRA requests filed through NextRequest until they are completed before the February 27 shutdown.

Once the new system goes live, additional details and a link to the JustFOIA portal will be made available on the Bernalillo County website.
