You can check your vehicle registration status by visiting the online services section of the California DMV website.

It sounds like you're experiencing a technical issue. Unfortunately, the cause could be a variety of factors such as system overload, input errors, or issues on the DMV's end. If the payment system is not accepting your payment, we recommend checking back after a few hours. If the issue persists, your registration may have specific problems that need to be addressed. Further resolution will have to be done by contacting DMV directly, or visiting an office near you. Please ensure the information you provide is accurate to prevent such issues.
