I was just online but failed to get new tabs.

errors abound.

Does WA not want to have boaters renew?

A few questions;

Did you spell your name right??

CAN you spell your name?

Are you dyslexic ?

Were you actually in the DMV website.?

You can't get your tabs at a porn site ya know...........

Seriously though, I had the same thing a few months back. I backed out and tried again. Keep trying. I'd not risk it.

I just went to the local license place and took care of it but then I never do it online. Usually take care of it at the county court house but they are still locked up peeking out windows.

Ah come on........

it takes about 4 minutes and they mail it to you. How much easier can it be????

When in doubt, I too will go to my local - tabs/post office/frisbee golf/ups/gift cards/license plates/ guy has his dog at work/ place.

yes, this place actually exists. LOL

package express on Harrison in Oly.

Love it.

Package express is such an awesome place. They really do want to help you, it's a different world in there compared to most dol offices.

I just got mine in the mail via online renewal a few days ago. Only problem I had was in entering one of my boat ID numbers - couldn't tell if it was a letter or a numeral. Put on my more powerful reading glasses, entered the right letter instead of wrong numeral, and it went as smoothly as it usually does.

Geez. I just set it up for automatic notice. They notify me, I click the link, and renew. Car, truck, boat, trailer, even driver's license. So simple even a caveman, or former WDFW employee, could do it.

Did mine online for the first time. Came in the mail less than 5 days. One note. They do charge 3% for the credit card transaction and why do we still have to go through an agent? It's like they mail to an agent, and agent mails to me for a fee? What a racket.

Normally mine is purchased there.....no go this year, County people are in the office but NOT doing any work..

What the hell, just do like thousands of others that drive vehicles.....NO Insurance, no drivers licence, sure some get caught....but no big deal, continue on 2, 3, 4, or more times....
