Section 250-162-21 - BILLING

1. Each applicant will be billed (invoiced) for their IRP registration(s) as determined by the information provided in the uniform application for apportioned registration.

2. The submission of an IRP application and generation of an IRP invoice based on the information contained in the application constitutes an agreement that the applicant will pay the resulting registration fees.

3. Unless other provisions are made, IRP invoices will be mailed to established registrants along with a temporary authority for each renewal, newly added vehicle, or any account change that requires the issuance of a new cab card. Only the IRP invoice will be mailed to applicants submitting their initial IRP application in Maine (i.e. new account requests).

4. Maine IRP invoices are due and payable upon receipt.

5. New registrants must pay their bill in full before receiving a temporary authority or any registration credentials; existing registrants are allowed up to 45 days to pay their invoice in full.

6. Registrants must pay their IRP invoice in full. Payment plans (partial payments) will only be allowed for audit assessments, and then, only by approval of the IRP Administrator.

7. Permanent credentials will be issued and mailed only after payment is received in full and all required documentation has been submitted to the Bureau.

8. An applicant may cancel their IRP invoice by notifying the IRP Unit in writing within seven (7) days after receipt of the invoice provided:

A. the applicant has not operated on a temporary authority, and

B. the applicant submits a notarized statement to the Bureau attesting to the fact that it did not operate on a temporary authority.

9. Any use of a temporary authority constitutes an agreement to pay the associated IRP bill without exception.

10. Maine will suspend any apportioned registration if the registrant fails to pay any Apportionable Fees within sixty (60) calendar days of the issuance of an apportioned registration, temporary authority, or billing invoice.
