7. Why am I being charged as a non-resident when I register on the registration site?!

Along with the new registration software comes new glitches. When you enter your address there are a few things that have to be exact to match residency. 

1. You will need to enter the abbreviation for your street (Dr. , St., Ln., Blvd., etc.)

2. When you type in the zip code, it auto-populates a city. That is correct, do not change it to Manchester. 

If you are still having trouble, just give us a call and we will get it straightened out for you.
