Went this week to get my first CA license. Made an appointment the night before. Showed up on time, received good service, was able to take driving test on their computer. Was in and out relatively quickly. The line for non-appointments was extremely long at 8 AM, so if you plan to take that route, show up early!

I had the best DMV experience at this location. The lady on window 4 greeted me with a smile! And she actually listened to my issue which was caused by at another DMV location and realy willing to help us to get it solved. If other DMV locations do at least half of what they do here, DMV experience won't be as harsh as what it is now. Thank you so much Window 4 lady!!!

I went in with such low expectations (because… it’s the DMV) and ended up having an easy, streamlined experience. Using the online Real ID application and having my documents (identity/proof of residence) pre approved saved me so much stress. I had an appointment at 9:50 AM. I had been seen at a window, got my photo taken, and took the CA written driver’s test, and was out before 11 AM.
Can’t recommend doing it the right way enough - getting those documents approved beforehand and scheduling an early appointment.

They didn’t pass my wife 2 times for driving 10 miles under the limit. Instructor told her to go over the 35mph speed limit. Ridiculous. Staff on windows and their service could be more friendly and professional. Got my licence there and felt uncomfortable at times with their behaviour. DMV employee at the driving test was communicative and friendly

Check their website dmv.ca.go/portal/ and click on Driver License ...you can find help there or you can go directly to DMV and ask for a replacement. You'll need your social security and some other proof of identification to prove your identity.
You go on the DMV WEBSITE or call the DMV appointment phone line.
I already have paid for the title change at the DMV Los Angeles office and I was told to get the title signed by the previous owner can I go to the Hollywood DMV office and turn it in return for my registration title
Lorraine Howard | Aug 21, 2018
Fernanda Paredes | Aug 21, 2018
I would suggest you go where you started the process. Then if something happens you don't have the issue of "Well they told me.."
Can I walk in instead of scheduling an appointment?

My real I.d calif drivers license expired in 2018. I am 74 years old. How do I renew this license and do I have to take the written test again? Thanks

Carlos Ardon | Aug 20, 2021
That is a good question and the best is if you go to the DMV, if you been driving and not outstanding tickets I don't see any problems, but for sure they will test your vision reading the small letters they did it to me.
does this dmv do car registrations?
Karem Chacana | Aug 20, 2021
Agustin Cruz | Aug 20, 2021
No, this dmv doesn't do car registrations. They will send you to the one located in Formosa. 936 N Formosa Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90046
Online you must use your reference number or print it out or save on your phone they also have an 800 number you can call but you must have your Appointment reference number

Brian Williams | Aug 20, 2021
Bring your birth certificate or passport with you and a proof of address (a bill or mail with your address) will suffice
Are you still receiving old California birth certificate the small ones from like the 90s because I need to renew my birth certificate and I need a valid id
Stephanie Bonilla | Aug 20, 2021
Lisbett Lewin | Aug 20, 2021
I believe every document presented has to be valid
Was at the dmv 2 weeks ago for my DL, paid the renewal fee with a new picture and I was out. Got there around 915am, didn't leave until 230pm. Got my DL in the mail last week.
Yes, the process is like getting an id. So most likely they'll ask for Proof of Address, Birth Certificate, ID, possibly your social, and anything else for identity.
Yes, except if it is a driving test you need an appointment and waiting time is very fast. Be there very early like 5 am if you want to get in as soon as possible. Have all the documentation ready. The line of people is extremely long if you are there by 8 am expect to get out by the time is almost time to close so bring your sandwiches if you want to spend a day at the DMV
and do the process ONLINE as it outlines at the website: www.dmv.ca.gov
Like the whole process, exactly as they describe, including going to www.ID.me and uploading your documents to the DMV office you want to go to. For real though, do it all
Why ... because even if you are standing outside in line, they sweep the line to pull people to the front if you can show them a completed upload code.
I promise it is worth it: I just opened my new RealID about 90 minutes ago. Good luck!
No ... but the wait, outside, for 90+ minutes is pretty brutal. I would get one. I would also consider going to another office. I did. It was much more efficient.
I live right next to a dmv in hollywood. If you ever need someone to wait in line for you it would be a pleasure and no hardship at all. I can wait inline if need be, because
ANYTHING...beats staying home doing nothing.

Dave Gordon | Aug 20, 2020
Need test
My drivers license is expiring tomorrow 2/12. Do I need to take a written test and what other documents do I need to bring with me?
Katherine Kane | Aug 20, 2020
Nestor Castaneda | Aug 20, 2020
Do you the DMV website. You shouldn't need to take a written test but you'll need a government issue ID (passport) and I believe 2 statements with your name and address on them (mortgage bill, bank statement, utility statement). Just double check the DMV website and I would suggest getting there early so you're out of there asap.
I’m moving from Chicago, what I need to bring to get a California driver license? I have my IL Driver license, my social Security card and my CA apartment lease information.
Shon Mc | Aug 20, 2020
Nestor Castaneda | Aug 20, 2020
That should be it:
1) Your DL
2) SS Card
3) Residency Document (you might need the physical lease)
4) The CA ID application
5) Pay the fees.

Brian Estes | Aug 20, 2020

I'm not able to stand for long periods of time.I have a disability placard tag.

Please tell me what is the first thing I can do when I arrive at the DMV.
Tita Sabandal | Aug 20, 2020
Yuet Ying Christina Wang | Aug 20, 2020
Go directly inside the office you don't need to line up. There is a checkin atrea for people with disabilities and they will help you out.
Do you provide service for producing Real Drivers ID??
Hollywood DMV sucks.
No reason to get an ID if you get your driver's license.
The DMV scene in the movie Zootopia was created from Hollywood DMV, except in the movie the DMV employees are nice.
I am 18 and all I have is my SS and do not have a permanent home for proof of address. If I am able to obtain my birth certificate (which is out of state) can I get a state issued ID or driver's license?
Natalie O | Aug 21, 2018
Evan Knezic | Aug 21, 2018
No, they will not issue a licence without 2 seperate proofs of a California residence. They are very strict about it.
