do not come here without an appointment. it's best to go to another tag office altogether. they turned us away on Friday at 4pm and told us to come back Monday. did not tell us to make an appointment. we came back Monday at 2:40 and they turned us away again saying they were full pay their closing time and if you didn't make an appointment you couldn't come in. noinstructions on how to make an appointment at all.

Property Tax folks have the worst attitude I have ever experienced and to make it worse they don't know what they are talking about. Please get Irvin Johnson out of office. Property Taxes are now 20% of my Revenue. He will put me out of business.

The young lady at the end didn’t get a chance to get her name she was rude and loud on the mic when it was time to assist me the other lady she claim in training sent me to do emission test came back in and got her got ghetto self almost got me out of character cause how loud and rude she was when I ask for a supervisor she call a young lady over and told her to tell me I can’t do it on my face if she suppose to be a supervisor I’m sure she knows the procedure no need to tell her what to tell me in a rude way I won’t be back to this location I rather deal with people that are way more professional yall need to take the mic from her cause her mouth will surely get her told off very u professional and she find so much joy and if that’s what you call a supervisor she allowed her to be so demanding she has to be floor support no manager would dare get talk to like that.

The year of the car determines whether you need an emissions test. If the car model is older than 25 years, or less than 3 years you do not need one. In your case, you will need an emissions test on both cars to receive a decal in 2020.

Why do I have to pay an insurance reinstatement fee for a car I do not have in my possession

Linda Jennings | Oct 15, 2019
Lacresha McDaniel | Oct 15, 2019

Once insurance is cancelled on a vehicle, your insurance company sends notification to the State database for that vin #. You have to cancel your registration or turn in the plate. Otherwise, if you received the letter regarding the fine, complete the back of it stating you no longer own it and take it in or mail it.
