An Act amending Title 23 (Domestic Relations) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in protection from abuse, providing for waiver of fee for corrected or duplicate State documents.

HB 53 waives fees for certain state documents for individuals affected by domestic abuse. It applies to people who received protection orders within 90 days or verified recent abuse (within 120 days) through a victim service provider, medical professional, or standardized form. The bill covers duplicate/corrected documents like driver's licenses, vehicle titles, and birth certificates from the Departments of Transportation and Health. Eligible individuals with dependents also receive fee waivers for their dependents' documents. The Departments of Transportation and Health must create public policies for this waiver within 90 days of the law's effective date.
