Message from Colorado State DMV: Renewal Postcard Delay

As the Colorado Division of Motor Vehicles works to implement Senate Bill 21-260 - Sustainability Of The Transportation System, a fee adjustment will need to be programmed into DRIVES, which will prevent renewal documents from being processed and mailed for December 2021.

As such, in accordance with current DRIVES County Governance Committee policy there will be no renewal reminder postcards or other monthly documents mailed in December.

January renewals will begin to go out sometime in mid-January. Due to the additional work needed, DPA will have to process the January files (February expirations) in conjunction with other projects and this may force a delay of up to two weeks before those files are fully processed and mailed. Neither DPA nor the Department will be able to track the records or files until they are entered into the DPA production lines.

For more information, please call Vehicle Services at 303-205-5608 or email DOR_TRCustomerservice@state.co.us.
