Verify Eligibility

Use the 3-step Verify Eligibility tool below to verify your license’s eligibility for the renewal fee waiver and to submit your fee waiver (if eligible and no payment due).



Step 1: License Search

Search by license number after receiving your renewal notice in the mail (approx. 60 days prior to license expiration date).

Step 2: Verify Eligibility

Verify license type fee waiver eligibility and identify your remaining balance due, if any.



Step 3: Submit Fee Waiver

Submit your renewal fee waiver either online if you have no balance due, or by mail with your payment.

After receiving your renewal notice in the mail use the Verify Eligibility tool below to identify which license types are eligible for the renewal fee waiver. If all renewal fees are waived you will be able to submit your fee waiver online. If there is a remaining balance due you will not be able to submit your fee waiver online and will be able to download Form ABC-SCF for printing.

The tool will determine your remaining balance due for license types not eligible for the renewal fee waiver. You must pay the renewal fees for the types that are not eligible for this relief. Please send by postal mail the payment for the remaining balance, Form ABC-SCF, and the bottom portion of your renewal notice. Failure to pay the remaining renewal fees will result in penalty fees and ultimately cancellation of the license.

Eligible licensees should carefully review the Requirements and Guidelines before submitting a fee waiver request.
