Florida HSMV Form 74036SP Spanish Download & Guide

Florida HSMV Form 74036SP Spanish Download & GuideIf your Florida driver license was suspended under the state’s Financial Responsibility Law after a motor vehicle crash, Form HSMV 74036SP (Acuerdo de Exoneración y Nota de Pagos Mensuales) provides a way to regain your driving privileges without posting a full security deposit. This official Spanish-language form allows the suspended driver and the other party (or their representative) to agree on monthly repayment for property damage or bodily injury claims arising from the crash.

The form is issued by the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV) and is the Spanish version of HSMV 74036. It is commonly used by Spanish-speaking residents and drivers in Florida who need to settle crash-related claims through installment payments rather than a lump-sum settlement or security deposit.

What Is Florida HSMV Form 74036SP?

Form 74036SP is a legally binding agreement and promissory note. It documents that the suspended driver and the other party involved in the crash have reached a settlement for damages. Once properly completed, notarized, and submitted, it can help satisfy the written release requirement needed to clear a Financial Responsibility (FR) suspension.

Key features of the form include:

  • Spanish-language version of the official Agreement for Release and Monthly Repayment Note
  • Sections for the suspended driver’s personal and case information
  • Fields to specify property damage and/or bodily injury amounts
  • Payment schedule details (total amount, first payment date, and frequency)
  • Notarized signature requirements for both parties
  • Language stating that full payment releases the suspended driver from further claims related to the crash

When Do You Need Form 74036SP?

You typically need this form when:

  • Your driver license or registration privileges were suspended under Florida Statutes Chapter 324 (Financial Responsibility Law) because of a crash.
  • You were required to obtain written releases from parties who suffered property damage or bodily injury.
  • You and the other party have agreed that you will repay the damages in installments rather than paying the full amount immediately or posting a security deposit with FLHSMV.

This form is an alternative to Form 74014SP (Release in Full of All Claims), which is used when the claim has already been paid in full. Form 74036SP is specifically for situations involving ongoing monthly payments.

Key Sections of the Form

The two-page form (revision SP-01/2014) contains the following main sections:

  • Suspended Driver’s Personal Information – Last name, first name, middle initial, suffix, current mailing address, city, state, ZIP code, date of crash, date of birth, driver’s license number, Social Security number, Financial Responsibility case number, and location of the crash.
  • Terms of the Agreement – Checkboxes for Property Damage (Daño a la Propiedad) and/or Bodily Injury (Daños Corporales), name and address of the other party, total amount owed, date of first payment, and payment frequency.
  • Signatures and Notarization – Spaces for the suspended driver’s signature and the other party’s (or representative’s) signature. Both signatures must be notarized. The form clearly states that the release is void unless all signatures are notarized.
  • Legal Language – Provisions addressing default (acceleration of the remaining balance), attorney’s fees in collection, and confirmation that the agreement may be used in the administration of Florida’s Financial Responsibility Law. Importantly, it notes that a default will not automatically result in suspension until the balance is reduced to a judgment.

How to Complete Florida Form 74036SP?

Follow these steps carefully:

  1. Download the official form from the FLHSMV website (link provided below).
  2. Print clear copies. You will need one form per releaser (other party).
  3. Fill out the suspended driver’s personal information section completely and accurately in print (letra de molde).
  4. Enter the other party’s name and address.
  5. Check the appropriate box(es) for property damage and/or bodily injury and enter the total amount agreed upon.
  6. Specify the date of the first payment and the frequency of payments (for example, monthly).
  7. Both the suspended driver and the other party (or authorized representative) must sign the form in the presence of a notary public. Notary seals and acknowledgments are required for both signatures.
  8. Keep a complete copy of every signed form for your personal records.

Mail the form to each releaser using certified mail with return receipt requested. If the releaser signs and returns the form, proceed to submission. If the releaser refuses to sign or does not respond, you will generally need to post the security deposit associated with that party instead.

How to Submit the Completed Form?

Once you have the properly signed and notarized form(s):

  • Take the signed Form(s) 74036SP together with your original SR-22 insurance certificate to your nearest Florida driver license office or tax collector office that offers driver license services, or
  • Mail the documents to:
    Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles
    Bureau of Motorist Compliance, MS 98
    Post Office Box 5775
    Tallahassee, Florida 32314-5775

Phone: 850-617-2000
Fax: 850-617-5216

You must also satisfy any other reinstatement requirements, such as paying applicable fees and maintaining the required future proof of financial responsibility (usually an SR-22).

Important Notes and Requirements

  • Only one form per releaser (other party) is accepted.
  • All signatures must be notarized or the release is void.
  • If certified mail is returned as undeliverable, you may take the unopened envelope to a local office to request a reduction of the required security deposit (to as low as $100 for bodily injury and/or $250 for property damage in certain cases).
  • Default on the payment plan may allow the other party to seek a court judgment, which could lead to a new suspension.
  • Always verify the most current requirements directly with FLHSMV or your local driver license office, as procedures can be updated.
