Disabled parking info - up to date?

Can anyone advise if the information provided on the 'Useful Information' sticky above is still accurate?

The first post regarding disabled parking is from 2007 advising to email TaxCollectorTPL@osceola.org

I haven't read through all the posts as there are loads of pages and all very old.

We aren't going till May so just getting organised. Any information would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Marie

I've just done this tonight and the email states that it can't be completed until 60 days or less before travel. This is the email address to use:

AJReyes@octaxcol.com

Hiya Toryn, did you follow the full, concise instructions at post 24 for application via George Woody at Orange County? My brother successfully applied in July via George - it used to be via Osceola but they stopped issuing a while ago.

Toryn, re-posted Orange instructions below, HTH

I asked our Lee County Deputy pal re the UK holographed badge, he spoke to their traffic dept. Their view, if the wheelchair hologram can't be seen from outside the windscreen then you risk a warning or ticket, which recently happened to a friend who was using her Canadian badge. Luckily the deputy was still there, she approached him and once her badge was confirmed he cancelled the warning. Unfortunately, with the UK disabled badge the wheelchair hologram can only be seen if one rotates the badge, not possible if locked in the car. Below are the instructions I sent my brother, apply 6 weeks afore your trip. Your Fl placard will be mailed to the UK. NOTE: in the top section of the form where it asks for Florida driving licence or ID card simply write NON-US. Brother puts his travel dates in the email text sent to George Woody. You need only complete the top 4 lines and sign, ignore all others including the section about a Dr's signature, your UK badge/pp copy is sufficient.

Below are George Woody's details plus where to email the downloaded form/necessary corresponding paperwork. Upon receipt of confirmation email ring George on 001-407-254-1039 to pay.

GEORGE A.L. WOODY, ASSISTANT MANAGER, AGENCY 11, OPERATIONS CENTER... Orange County Tax Collector Scott Randolph

Phone: 407-254-1039 Fax: 407-254-1074

email: gwoody@octaxcol.com

Greetings,

To issue a US Parking placard I will need you to complete the attached form and return with signature and travel dates. I will also need a copy of your blue badge (front and back), and your passport. The fee is $17.00 US Dollars [$15 + $2 card fee] that can be paid by credit card after processing your documents. Thank you

Downloaded the form HERE

As a Non-US citizen you only need to fill in the top section and where it asks for Florida driving licence or ID card simply write NON-US.

Email copies of the documents, await a confirmation email, then ring the above number to pay the $17 fee. A receipt will be issued, the placard will be processed and mailed to your UK home.

Thanks Toryn, yes, post 24 of this thread has instructions, I then posted again so you didn't have to search back

Would you check A J Reyes email to see if it states Osceola or Orange County Tax Office. Osceola stopped online temp Fl disabled placard application 3 years ago.
