If it is your renewal date and your vehicle has failed the emissions test, a repair waiver may be issued if you meet all of the specified qualifications. Go to www.cleanairforce.com for information concerning repair waivers. You may pay the ad valorem tax before your renewal date to avoid late penalties.
