Mostly all the employees are very nice there. On the photo side they were short handed today. Just one lady handling 2 stations. She just could not keep up that way. Not sure how that situation arose but someone there should have done something about it.

The wait was shorter than expected, clean facility, fully staffed. Best DMV experience in years!

I don't think anyone really likes going to the DMV but you'll end up there at least once every few years. At the redwood city location, one out of the three employees I interacted with was really friendly, which definitely beats the expectations for the reputation the DMV gets. I went in for a real ID after scheduling an appointment (filled out documents online). Waited for about 20 minutes before being called and then was out after another 25 minutes with my temporary ID. They said they will mail the real one to me within two weeks

It’s okay, but for the drivers test we had to wait almost 2 hours, around 1.5 hours after our scheduled time. Otherwise the people there were great

In general, you need authentic documentation. Photocopies don't cut it.

I received a mail notice for renewal of my CA driver's license. I am over 75 so I must appear in person to renew my license, which will include my Real ID. How do I make an appointment with Redwood City DMV office?

Kenneth Lajoie | Aug 31, 2021
faranak keshmiri | Aug 31, 2021

Are they still doing online appointments? I might be wrong but I think due to the overwhelming amount they stopped letting you make them, you just have to show up. I went right at 8 am on a Monday and there was only a 15 min wait, so it might not be that bad.

What do I need to bring to a behind the wheel test? And what is on the driving test?

hiroka matsushima | Aug 31, 2020
Michael Winton | Aug 31, 2020

Bring your permit (there's a place a parent needs to sign that you've done your 50 hours of practice), the signed form saying you completed your driver's training, and vehicle registration and insurance for the car you will take the test in. The person who takes you to the DMV (parent?) also needs to show their license. You have to wear a mask and get your temperature checked. I recommend spending some time driving around the area before your test to get familiar with the streets. You'll probably have to drive on both residential and main streets, do your backup test, and park after the test.

I received a Renewal Notice that says "during your visit" at DMV you are required to: Take a knowledge test." Is that in fact required when I attempt to renew in Redwood City? My age is 73.

I have a confirmed appointment on June 26 at 3 PM. My appointment is to obtain a Real ID only. However the confirmation email from the DMV says "Your new DL appointment". Does "DL" mean that a Real ID can also be obtained with this appointment?

Maria Finale | Aug 31, 2020

If you have an appointment, you do not need to wait in the check-in line, simply walk to the front of the line and wait until the check-in person is ready for you.

What is the least busy day and time at RWC DMV?

Dana Foley | Aug 31, 2020
Ashton Reimer | Aug 31, 2020

Least busy day really depends on a lot of things, such as if there's a holiday coming up. The best thing to do is to show up ~40 minutes before they open and get in line, or around 1-2pm in the afternoon so you miss the lunch rush. If you don't have an appointment, expect to be here for ~2 hours.

when is the best time to go?

Michael Sheldon | Aug 31, 2020
Kunal Phapunkar | Aug 31, 2020

For walk-ins, I'd suggest morning and that too at least 45 mins before the DMV opens. For appointments, it doesn't matter, you'll get over with everything within 30-45 mins if you already have an appointment.

How do I check to see if I have any tickets

Carlan Horton | Aug 31, 2020
Kunal Phapunkar | Aug 31, 2020

You'll have to go at this website: http://www.courts.ca.gov/find-my-court.htm Find the court in the area where you've got ticket. Go to that court's website and then see if you have a ticket and pay/contest or whatever you want to do.

I need to renew my drivers lic. I went on line and scheduled a date, which is 2 months past my lic expiration. Is that a problem?

How I make a appointment for new No driver license

Viktor Dizik | Sep 1, 2019
Kunal Phapunkar | Sep 1, 2019

Go to https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/dmv/dmv/onlinesvcs/appointment Click on "Office Visit Appointment" Select the nearest CA DMV office near you Select 1 item Select "Apply for, replace, or renew a REAL ID:" And then fill your info in Customer Information section After that click on Continue. It'll give you options of appointments. If no appointments available, you'd need to change the DMV location. You might have to do this several time if no appointments are available near you. I'd recommend to do a walk-in to DMV office near you but make sure you go there at-least 45 mins before opening up. That is around 7:15 AM. You'll get work done by 9-9:30 AM. I'm telling this from personal experience.
