Payment may be made at the clerk's office counter, over the telephone, or by mail. Credit card payments made by mail should be accompanied by a Credit Card Payment Information Form. In addition, payment may be paid online via Pay.gov.

There are two main types of guardianship, a ?guardian of the person?, to manage the ward's personal affairs; and ?a guardian of the estate?, to manage the ward's financial affairs. New Hampshire's law allows any competent person to be appointed guardian, provided there is no conflict of interest.

The guardian may be appointed over the person and also over the person's estate. There are generally two types of guardianships: guardianship of a minor and guardianship of an ?incapacitated? person.
