After you make your final auto loan payment, the lender sends an electronic release to California's DMV. Once the DMV receives the electronic release, it issues a new certificate of title and registration card showing you're the sole owner.
How can I remove the lien from my title? You may apply for a new title at any Missouri license office. You must submit the notarized lien release (copy or original), your current title (if in your possession) and pay an $8.50 title fee and a $6.00 processing fee.
Depending on state laws, paper titles are generally mailed and electronic titles and/or liens are released to the motor vehicle agency approximately 10 business days after the payoff is received. Allow 15-30 days for receipt of your title based on mail time and/or motor vehicle agency process.
The lender will also notify the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) that the loan has been paid in full. If you don't receive the lien release, submit a request to your lender for proof that the loan has been satisfied. This request can be made through the DMV or directly to the lender.
To add or remove a lien on your vehicle title, visit your local county tax office. The title fee is $28 or $33, depending on your county, and must be paid at time of application. Please contact your local county tax office for the exact cost.
