    Terms of Payment Agreement

    • Maximum payment term is 36 months.
    • Minimum monthly payment is $10.00.
    • Any state or federal tax refund or state vendor payment will still be offset and applied to the amount due.
    • Estimated Interest will be calculated, however, the final payment will reflect the actual amount due.
    • Any new liability will break the agreement and the full balance will become due immediately.
    • If you elect payments to come directly from your bank account, the first payment will take several days to process before it comes out of your account.It can also take up 5 days or longer to cancel a scheduled payment. The Department is not responsible for any bank charges for insufficient funds in your account.
    • If you ask for a bank or credit card payment to come out using the 29, 30, or 31st of the month, we will assume you are asking for the last day of the month and will adjust for months with fewer days. For instance, the February payment will come out on the 28th.
    • Setting up a pay plan will not change your rights to appeal the liability within the time frame allowed by law.
    • Call the number on your last bill if you need to change the payment plan once it is approved.
    • Once this payment plan is approved, no further legal actions will be taken by the Department of Revenue as long as all payments are made timely. If this is a court debt, the courts may take action to suspend your driver's license. If so, contact our assigned collector so we can advise the clerk to stop that action.(This can take place only after your drivers license is already suspended, and can 10 days or longer.) It is your responsibility to ensure you have a valid drivers license.
      To qualify to have the suspension stopped, you have set up a payment plan and the first payment has posted to your account. We can only handle cases currently placed with CCU for collection.
    • Failure to make scheduled payments timely may result in additional collection efforts at the end of your appeal period. This may include a block to prevent licensing any vehicle, filing of a lien, sanctions on any professional license, and levies on wages and bank accounts.
    • If you have additional debt not reflected in the amount due, call the number on your last billing notice to ask that it be added to your pay plan.(This may not be possible for court debt.)
    • All debt types are currently eligible to set up pay plans using this system.
