The department shall send a written notice to an individual who has child support arrearages of $1,000 or more. The notice shall inform the individual that because of the arrearages, the issuance or renewal of the individual's driver's, professional, sporting, or recreational license, registration, certification, or permit is subject to restriction. The department shall mail the notice by first class mail to the individual's last known address and shall notify the appropriate department or agency.

When the individual has a written, signed agreement with the department for the payment of accumulated arrearages, the department shall notify the appropriate department or agency that it may issue or renew the license, registration, certification, or permit. If the individual fails to comply with the repayment agreement, the department may either restrict the individual's ability to obtain or renew a driver's, professional, sporting, or recreational license, registration, certification, or permit; or seek revocation of the license, registration, certification, or permit.
