The DMV cashed my check today!

I used Priority Mail when I mailed it and was received on May 6th; 64 days ago. Now to wait for the goods to arrive in the mail…
Nice. I mailed mine on May 6th, so hopefully it isn't too far behind you. Of course I didn't think to do tracking since I just mailed it from work. So I have no idea when it got there...lol. fingers crossed!

My stickers and paperwork arrived today!

I'm also waiting on these stickers to arrive today. I'll put them on my car under the HOV stickers tomorrow or prior to the weekend.

I will put $5.00 down for August an 2nd arrival and $10 for August 3rd.
Wasn't sure if this meant for your stickers or mine. If you bet on mine arriving, my Venmo is the same as my username. ;)
Seriously, don't send me money. It's a joke!

Application sent 5/10/21 from Sacramento and check cashed 7/14/21. Looks like they are getting a little better with processing times.

Edit: Received decals 7/20/21 and used 3M Paint Protection Film below the decals to install. I bought a 12" wide roll to do some work on the car and used some of it for this.

On Monday I filled out the form for the Bay Area FasTrak CAV Toll Tag. They say it takes 7-10 business days to arrive, but four days latter mine arrived!

You can't fill this out until you have received and digitally scanned your HOV paperwork, but once you do it seems rather quick. You'll get some pamphlets with it for details, but here's the key details:

My recap so far.
- Mailed in form/check 4/10
- Recieved form/check back from DMV 6/30 stating that dealer screwed up title by listing it as a gas vehicle
- 4/7 Dealer tells Ford they need new title, then I have to mail everything in again. Title not received yet as of today.


...still waiting.

Does anyone know if there’s a time limit to apply for the sticker? If you wait until 2022 you’ll get an extra 9 months.

I'm actually confused on this process. Can anyone shed some light on this?

I've received Clean Air Vehicle Decal Certificate from DMV. It does mention that Amount paid as $22, and my VIN and name correctly. I vaguely remember that my dealer mentioned that they will apply for stickers on my behalf.

Now that received the certificate but not the actual decals., am I missing any process that I need to perform?


Update: My dealership had them. They just forgot to give them to me ?

The decals should have been included. It happened to someone else here as well. You will have to contact the DMV and they will send another set.

Thanks for the reminder. I need to do this.

Did you apply for sticker with temp lic. plate or did you wait for your permanent plates to arrive?
I waited for my plates to arrive, then swapped them for my personalized plates (MUST ENG), got new registration at AAA, then sent in application. Took about 6 weeks for stickers to arrive after that. The plate is associated with the sticker, so I did not want the verification cameras in the HOV lanes to get confused.
