Soberlink Fee Schedule

 The Allegheny County Adult Probation Soberlink fee schedule is based upon a sliding scale according to an individual's verifiable gross income. Any offender ordered to Soberlink Monitoring by a Common Pleas Court Judge is subject to the fee schedule.

 The following program fees shall be applicable to all individuals placed on Soberlink monitoring:

Financial level Gross Income Per Diem
Level 3 $59,999 or Higher $15/day
Level 2 $30,000 to $59,998 $10/day
Level 1 $29,999 and under $5/day
Level 0 Supplemental Security Income  (SSI)
Social Security Disability (SSD)
Social Security Retirement  (SSR)
$3.50/day

 Probation officers are responsible for verifying gross income and assigning a financial level for those offenders placed on Soberlink Monitoring. Before installation, offenders are advised of the cost of being on Soberlink Monitoring and then sign the income verification form. For offenders ordered to Soberlink more than once, any previous balances from Soberlink cases must be paid in full or payment arrangements made with the Allegheny County Adult Probation Department. The offenders also sign a payment agreement that describes the cost of the program. Payments must be made in the form of check or money order only, payable to Allegheny County. Payments may be mailed to Allegheny County Adult Probation Department or given in person to the assigned probation officer. Probation officers are not permitted to accept cash payments.
