Child Support - Driver License Reinstatement

A program of Cuyahoga County Job And Family Services

If your license is blocked because you are behind on child support payments, this service can remove that block. You can get it removed by paying all the back child support you owe, setting up payments through your employer or bank, or proving you have a disability that keeps you from working. If you cannot pay the full amount or set up payments, you must join a free job training program to get your license block lifted.
