Hi, I just got financed by a car company..not a major company like, ford, honda..or anything like that but a local car dealership. It took a month but they finally apporved my financing...this is my fist car and I was wondering...what do I need to get my tag...I thought they were going to mail me something...but I haven't received anything. Do you get your title before you finish paying it off or after you finish paying it off....I also talked to someone that I know that sells cars and they said the tag office should have my information and to call them....Is that correct? Im going to call the dealership but I just wanted to ask in the meantime...

call them up, it's different for each state, but the dealership should have a tag place that they work directly with.
they know the system, and will walk you through it.
you probably won't touch your title till the financing is paid off, or if you switch lenders (i.e. to a bank or something but then the other lender holds it)
when you call, don't be afraid to ask them what the next step is (did you get your insurance straightened out?)

You should get a copy of the title in order to register the car. The place financing the car retains the original title. You will probably find that the financing has been sold to a bank. Ask the dealership.
