Dear Mr. Cowan:

Staff had no comments except the requirement to make the following representation on behalf of the Registrant:

In connection with the Amendments, IDS Life Insurance Company of New York, (the "Company") on behalf of the Registrant, hereby acknowledges the following:

The disclosures in the filing are the responsibility of the Company and the Company is fully responsible for the adequacy or accuracy of the disclosures in this filing. The Company represents to the Commission that comments made by the Commission, or the staff acting pursuant to delegated authority, or changes to disclosure in response to staff comments in the filing reviewed by the staff, do not foreclosure the Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing, and the Company represents that it will not assert this action as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person, under the federal securities laws of the United States.

If you have any additional questions, please call Mary Ellyn Minenko at 612-671-3678 or Simone Pepper at 612-671-2847.
