I asked the lady at Sacramento that claimed to be "The SB-100 Authority" how a previous years SB-100 number issued on the last calendar day of any given year could be invalid the following day. She simply repeated herself stating that currently, the are accepting smog referree appointments for ALL issues SB-100's, but that they aren't required to and it could change. To be guaranteed registration of my car, I needed a 2005 number. Period.

It makes no sense, no. I agree. Other things in the DMV make less sense, and I'm not willing to take a risk.

No, I have not contacted anyone about returning my 2005 SB-100 number. If there was a mechanism available to assure me I only needed one of the two numbers I possess, as well as a method available to transfer the unused number, I'd be more than happy to help someone out. Lead the way, I've given up.
