I have very old fines; do I still have to pay them?
Court-ordered fines remain owing until paid. Even if your fine is old or you have claimed bankruptcy, you are still responsible for paying outstanding fines in full.
At any time, the court may apply enforcement actions including licence suspension and garnishment of wages until the fine is no longer outstanding.
I need more time to pay my fine or I have a defaulted fine
If you need more time to pay your court-ordered fine, obtain a Motion for Extension of Time to Pay the Fine form online or from any Provincial Offences Court office. You can submit the completed form through email to @email, by mail or by delivering it in person to the address on the ticket.

A defaulted fine is a fine that has not been paid by its due date as indicated in the Notice of Fine and Due Date. Please pay your defaulted fine as soon as possible.
