Description

Helps clients keep or regain a valid driver license. Court staff can recall from collections any unpaid city of Seattle tickets that are suspending a license, eliminate collections fees and interest and enroll applicants in a payment plan. Those receiving or eligible for government financial assistance may be able to volunteer at a community service agency instead of paying a fine. Clients with suspension tickets in more than one jurisdiction can enroll in the King County Unified Payment Program, where participants pay one payment per month. Once payment has been received, DOL will be notified that the hold can be removed from the driver license.
