Re: First Transamerica Life Insurance Company Separate Account VA-2LNY
(File Nos. 33-55152, 811-7368)
Dear Commissioners:
On behalf of First Transamerica Life Insurance Company and Separate Account
VA- 2LNY (the "Account"), we are filing a certification pursuant to paragraph
(j) of Rule 497 under the Securities Act of 1933. In this regard, we certify
that the form of Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information ("SAI") for
certain deferred variable annuity contracts offered by the Company through the
Account otherwise required to be filed under paragraph (c) of Rule 497 does not
differ from the form of Prospectus and SAI contained in the Form N-4
registration statement for the Account (the "Registration Statement") which was
filed electronically with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 29,
1996 via EDGARLINK.
Sincerely,
Regina M. Fink
Counsel
