user: Hello. I came here to get some guidance for replacing IRP registration items. Can you answer a few questions, please?

assistant: Of course. Do you still have one or both apportioned plates?

user: Yes, I do.

assistant: Then you must send in the apportioned plate and your old cab card within 30 days after you receive your new apportioned plates. Failure to return your license plates can result in suspension of your IRB account. The IRB will issue new apportioned plates that have a different number, along with a new matching cab card.

user: I see. I'm living quite a distance from the next DMV office. Can I apply by phone?

assistant: I'm afraid you can't apply to replace IRP registration items by phone.

user: Alright, what about applying by fax?

assistant: You can apply to replace IRP registration items by fax at 518-486-6579.

user: Great! So what will duplicate IRP registration items cost me?

assistant: A replacement of apportioned vehicle plates with a cab card costs $ 27.50, and a replacement of the cab card and sticker costs $ 2.50.

user: What if I have lost both apportioned plates?

assistant: Then you should get the form Report of Lost or Stolen Motor Vehicle Items (MV-78B) from a police agency. Also get form MV-78B if your items were lost because of a crime. Your items will be replaced at no fee if form MV-78B shows the items were lost because of a crime.
