So you don't need to take your failed emissions to the tag office. They will just tell you to come back when it's passed or when you're eligible for an exemption.
NO! you take it up there and get a paper temporary tag.... the ones that look like dealer tags but government issue... they give you thirty days to drive it while it is bein fixed.... you have to have everything you would need if you passed but they give you that and you have 30days without any fees.... I know this bc i have done this.....
