Getting Real ID is a hastle for a married woman. Proof of marriage. Certified only. Poor directions in my opinion. What is needed should be explicitly described.

In and out in less than 5 minutes! Definitely not the DoL I remember where you would pack a lunch so you didn't pass out waiting for your number to come up!

Experience was great. Got seen immediately at my scheduled time and after running home to get a missing document I waited less than five minutes to see the same agent, on a Saturday.
Process, other than me forgetting a document, went super smoothly and my many questions were all answered effectively.
Sure, this is a licensing office. Though my experience was as good as I could've asked for.
Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

You will want to contact a driver's education school for their prices. Knowledge tests are not conducted in office for driving permits.There are several schools in the Spokane and Spokane Valley area. Once you have passed a test with them, you can purchase your permit at a DOL office for $25. If you are looking for a Commercial License Permit, stop by an office or go to dol.wa.gov to get more information.

Vickie Ybarra | Aug 23, 2019
Amy Albrecht (Amy Lynn) | Aug 23, 2019
Starting October 1st 2020 you need a real ID document to fly. Check out Dol.wa.gov to see different real ID documents you can use and more information about the enhanced drivers license or ID card
You have two options, you can go online and update your information or you can stop by a DOL office and update in person. If you go into an office, you can choose to just update your information or purchase a new license with your current address listed on the card.

I've never heard of transferring an ID card. You just need to go into a licensing office and buy a Washington state ID. Bring proof of residency (like a piece of mail), your old card, and SSN.

I have been in Spokane Valley since 2010 from California. My driver's card has been expired, I am thinking I am ready to drive here will it be a written as well as a driving test? Plus what can I bring to make this a smooth process for your office?
Louise Powell | Aug 23, 2018
Veronica Flores-Sparks | Aug 23, 2018
You will have to take both the written and the drive test, which can be done at a Driver's Education school. You will need to show documents for your identity. If you don't have a valid passport, then it's best to come in and talk directly with an agent because they can tell you what you can use and give you a list of accepted documents and driver's education schools. Each person is different based on what documents they are able to present and if they've had a previous WA record. You can get the list of accepted identity documents on the dol.wa.gov website or you can call DOL customer service number, as well.
So I have a permit I didn't take the class but can I take my drive test before I'm 18 and get my licences at 18

My son needs to get an enhanced license to go into Canada. He is 17 and already has a Washington license. Do his mother or I need to accompany him to the licensing office? Or can he go on his own to get it?
Wesley Williams | Aug 23, 2018
Akuma Nightthorn | Aug 23, 2018
An adult needs to go with him I believe, due to the cost and since it's a change on an official identification piece.
It 60 to renew your license. Dosnt matter if it expried yet or not. And just be prepaird to wait for atleast 2 hours. If you go right when they open the door its much faster.
My son just turned 16 he is going into drivers ed in the next month or 2 can he get his permit before enrollment of drivers ed?
