NYS Driver's License Suspension & Exemptions
Were you aware that if you owe $10,000 or more in past-due tax liabilities, the Tax Department is permitted by law to recommend the suspension of your New York State driver's license?

Effective July 11, 2019, the New York State Tax Law was amended to include exceptions for taxpayers who:

  • receive public assistance benefits as defined by the NYS Office of Temporary and Disability Assistance;
  • receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI) a federal program designed to help aged, blind, and disabled persons with little or no income; or
  • demonstrate to the department that the suspension of their driver's license will cause undue economic hardship.
