It should be no secret to anyone that every state is suffering from budget constraints due largely to the economic downturn. A rotten economy and increased debt and subsequent expenses has forced most states to increase services fees on just about everything. The Motor Vehicle Driving Records or MVR is no exception. The Department of Motor Vehicles have largely raised prices from nominal amounts to doubling and even tripling the MVR Fees.
This can be tough on the trucking transportation companies that require MVR background checks to meet the Department of Transportation or DOT compliance standards on all the company drivers. But nevertheless the price of business is…well…the price of business.
With this in mind, Corra Group wants to make you aware that as of August 1st, 2010, the West Virginia DMV will be raising the prices on driving records from $8.00 per abstract to $9.00. Not too bad.
Also, Corra Group would like to remind our clients that the Oklahoma Department of Motor Vehicles, as of July 1st, 2010, has raised is MVR Driving Reports from $12.50 to $27.50 per record. There’s an increase for you. Some Corra Group clients are still getting over the sticker shock on this particular background check. But life goes on.
Anyway, there are the updates. Check them out before you hire.
