Q: I got my driver license took from me for not paying child support. I started paying 3 months ago to get it back.
What do I need to do to get it back? I work out of town. I really need it to continue to pay child support.
A: In Idaho, if your driver's license was suspended for non-payment of child support, there are specific steps to reinstate it. First, pay all overdue child support, including interest and penalties. Then, pay the $100 reinstatement fee to the Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) online, by mail, or in person. File a reinstatement petition with the court that issued the child support order, providing proof of full payment and the reinstatement fee. Attend a hearing to explain your situation and commitment to future payments. If you work out of town, offer proof of employment, explore alternative payment options, and clarify your travel schedules to address the court's concerns.
