Cons: made an appointment, still had to wait in line over an hour.
Pros: they had plenty of seats, the parking lot is huge, and it seemed pretty organized.
The woman that helped me was great! Super nice and definitely made a not-so-fun experience a lot better. She was at kiosk 24.. looks like her initials are MS and her ID is M523296. Thank you!! You're just lovely!

The long-held reputation of DPS offices being slow and full of grumpy workers doesn't apply at this location. The employees here are friendly, patient, helpful, respectful, and happy to answer questions, and my entire license renewal visit took less than 40 minutes despite the fact that I showed up 20 minutes late for my prescheduled appointment (which was entirely my fault). Just make sure you schedule your appointment ahead of time and have all the required documents, and you'll be pleased with the caring service you receive here. This was such a pleasant surprise.

Appointment was at 10am. They tell you to get there no more than 30 minutes before. Got there at 9:30. A lot of great employees to help navigate you through signing in and filling out paperwork. Place was packed. Finally got in at 11am and out by 11:20. Be prepared to wait when you get there. Other than than, we were impressed by the helpful staff.

Probably goes without saying, but I would advise making an appointment, that made both of my experiences easy and smooth.
I was in and out in an hour both times I went (forgot my birth certificate the first time) The staff was extremely kind and helpful. The mess up was mine, but they set me up with another appointment the next week and all of the information I needed to successfully complete my drivers license transfer from out of state.
These folks were busy, and made a point to make sure I was able to get what I needed with kindness. I’d say that’s 5 star worthy.
SOME employees at Court house, City Hall, DMV, INS, etc..., act like they are better than others, and look down others. It is just that individual's characters and they must be under moral character training by those entities. Simply, those places hired wrong candidates. When I see those rude & unprofessional employees, I feel pity. Still, don't forget to get that person's name and date, make sure file a complaint, make it official.
Can I make a walk in driving to driving center (DPS) on Thursday?

What must I do to renew my drivers license? I am 80 and need to renew today.
Gary Dunn | Nov 7, 2018
Wild Bill White! | Nov 8, 2018
Hi Gary,
You would need 1 proof of identification (e.g. license, SS card, birth certificate etc...). Also, you will need to fill out a renewal application DL-43. IT IS 25.00 for renewals.
Bill
How much for an ID
Edward Lee | Nov 7, 2018
Miss CASE | Nov 8, 2018
What do I do going to visit my husband I don't have my social, birth certificate, but I do have my I. D
For a replacement card you will need 1 form of I'D. Such as old: I'D Card within 2 years from expiration or SS card, birth certificate, passport, permanent resident card, EAD card, or any other supporting document.
Proof of residency is not required.
Good morning. You send the document to the email of whomever is helping you at the time. They will provide their email address. If it is busy you'll be sent to the info desk to print it. Only send a SCREENSHOT not a pdf because it may could take longer.
There is a preferred appt system however if you need services right away and cannot wait then you can arrive before the doors open. Usually the first 20 walkins are accepted. Other than that if the lobby is pretty empty you will be seen. For your convenience the DPS is now open every Saturday until the end of the year. Except the Saturday the week of Thanksgiving. Hopefully you can get your needs taken care of.
You'll have to get a new license in Cali if you're moving there anyway. Just renew your license in Cali (well switch your license). The renewal period is 2yrs so all of your credentials are still good.
Or you can try being a walkin Mon-Sat. Saturday is a good day to drop in.
Update: As of April all COVID waivers are done. Out of state licenses have to be up to date. If you renew online but just don't have it in hand that is fine. Our the system will let them know your status. They take walkins as well. Go early in the mornings.
When I was there if you didn't have an appointment they would direct you to the right where they had computers set up open to the home page where you could make an appointment. They also said if you didn't want to use the computer you could do it from your cell or any computer. So they were letting walk ins inside but only so they could make an appointment. Takes about 8 weeks on average...at least that was the average when I made my appointment in mid August...my appointment was for October 13th... so pretty much 8 weeks.
Biggest mistake? Forgetting a second form of identification like a birth certificate, passport, or driver's license or you'll be sent home and you'll have to wait another 6 to 8 weeks...this happened to a couple of people during the time I was there. If you used a second form of identification the last time you got your driver's license they may have that info in their system but I'd bring it anyway just to be sure you don't have to reschedule.
Huh? We get our car inspected, then we have to take that report , along w/ the renewal form ( you can also fill out a blank one ) to the DMV & that's how u get tags now? It takes a 2 step process, not a 1 step anymore
fresh out of prison, how can i get a state identification right away because dps appointment is so far away?
Fielder Oxford House | Sep 7, 2021
Brian Abraham | Sep 8, 2021
The only thing I would suggest is you try multiple locations to see which one can get you in the soonest. You might have to go out of town for quicker service.
We had an appointment at 10 am and we were done no later then 11:30 so pretty quick but make sure you have all your paper work in order have your birth certificate when you go cause when I went to get my license license renewed I didn't have it and I waited for like an hour and had to leave and come back with it or a passport is ok also.
personal experience: _somehow_ my SS card had never been scanned into the state's system 😯 they told me I had to go home and get it 🤪 person I was dealing with told me I'd "likely" get to finish the process if they weren't too busy when I came back - it was like 4:30 and the parking lot looked a lot less crowded, so I figure I had it in the bag - 2nd in line and that person tells me "you'll need a new appointment" 🤦 "luckily we have walk-ins this afternoon" and she handed me a number (whew) so go 4pm-ish is my advice 🤷
If you have an existing ID and your social security card and Birth Certificate that's all you need
My licence does not have a "star" on the right hand corner. Need website to my appt. (DMC, DPS) OR DO I MAKE A DRIVER'S LICENSE APPT??

I would just take it into them and ask them I am actually still with the paper D.L. for now. The website though is. https://www.dps.texas.gov/section/driver-license
If I had a appointment today but the office is closed what should I do?
Mixmaster | Mar 11, 2021
Famestar Marqueet | Mar 12, 2021
You should hold on to the appoint email you received when you set up the appointment. Since the weather is bad they may be closed for the rest of the week. However, they may honor the appointments that were already set before the winter storm. You should try calling tomorrow and ask.
Does this location have hard copies of the CDL Class B Handbooks available? I know it is available on-line but it is almost 200 pages. I prefer hard copy to make notes as I study.
Pancho you need 2 forms of identification: IE: ID Card, passport, birth certificate, social security card. 2 forms of proof of your residence: 2 bills with your name and address on them
Birth Certificate
Proof of residency
Social security card
If you have internet access you can Google Texas DPS and go to their website to verify these requirements. Best while you are on their website to go to appointments and following the instructions to make an appointment.
You must bring a birth certificate. Without that you will waste your time and trip. Same goes for ss card and proof of residence. Proof of citizenship doubles as the birth certificate if you immigrated.
You can try and do a walk in and hope that they will see you. Since it fluctuates there is a chance that you will get in. Otherwise you have to wait till the date of your appointment. Make sure to be early and have all of your paperwork in order.
I'm not sure you can walk in because I remember I had shedulued days back and still had to wait a coupl of hours/minutes to get attended to. It didn't take long but I'm not entirely sure walk-ins are allowed
https://www.dps.texas.gov/DriverLicense/replace.htm
"If your card has been lost, stolen or destroyed, and you do not have the information listed above, you must visit your local driver license office to obtain a replacement."
You must set up an appointment online.
Once you have your appointment just be sure you are there a few minutes early. Have proper IDs. They are efficient and friendly. It's so much better than it used to be
If you know there will be less people, then yes. The trick is to know when less people will be there. I arrived forty-five minutes before they opened and there was already a line. I was number 17 in line. It was cold and rainy.
Good morning Barbara, This is what I found on the DPS website. It looks like a birth certificate is a must.
https://www.dps.texas.gov/DriverLicense/RealID
If you can get online or call the county in which you were born they can usually get a certified copy to you within a few business days for a fee.
Good luck, Hope this helps!
Can I get the gold star drivers license for easy airline clearance? Do I need an appointment or can I do online?
Gloria Pena | Nov 6, 2020
Blair Counts | Nov 7, 2020
Yes. All IDs and DLs currently being issued are Real ID. You might need to make an appointment because if you're required to show some other form of ID like a birth certificate. You can check online to see if you can simply renew or if you need to make an appointment.
Why does your appointment scheduler let you schedule appointments for times that your facility is closed? Makes no sense. 2 Times I have scheduled an appointment to find out that your facility is not even open.
Ginger Land | Nov 6, 2020
Steven Wilson | Nov 7, 2020
Not sure but once you the appointment time scheduled during regular business hours it won't take long for getting the license renewed. When you arrived check in on your phone with the original email or text to get your number in line. Hope that helps.

Thank you !
Rene O'Neill Plutino | Nov 6, 2020
James T | Nov 7, 2020
You have to schedule an appointment online. It would be a good idea to bring a birth certificate with you this time, as they're requiring people to prove "lawful presence". Even for renewing.

What all do i need to obtain an ID card for my 17 year old son? Do i have to go to the one by my house or can i go to any Public safety office?
Maria Tatum | Nov 6, 2020
M Rios | Nov 7, 2020
You can go to any office. He will need his BC, SS card and a third identifier i.e. diploma if he has graduated if not, the shot record or school report card should work. Also, if he lives with you and he does not have any specific documents showing his current address, then you as a parent can sign the Residency affidavit and provide 2 residency docs i.e. water, electric, credit card statement, current car insurance or registration. The documents have to be at least 30 days old but not more than 90 days. For more info, you should look at the Texas DPS pamphlet with the hand on it or visit Texas.gov for more accurate info
You should be able to do it online. If not you should have received the letter from the state saying that you must renew it in person.
Here's a link to the website so that you can renew it online.

Only 3 days. Usually they get half a day on Wednesday and off on Thanksgiving and the day after but I guess this year they got 3 full days, good for them. They put up with quite a bit, they need those days to destress and enjoy their families too. 🎉Happy Thanksgiving everyone! 🎉

Kevin Davis | Nov 6, 2020

You could but when you walk in you have to check in at the Kiosk and that could take forever. If you make an online appt all you do when you get to the DPS is check in on the Kiosk 5-10 before your online appt and it shouldn't take long. I pray this helped.

Just visit the office. They never answer the calls.
Why can't a human being just answer the phone without having to listen to 10 minutes of recorded messages and directions to go to the web. People work or go to school. Just answer the phone!

What do I need to get a Texas Drivers license? Moved here from out of state and license is not expired.
Mary Bull | Nov 7, 2018
Harikailash Gopalakrishnan | Nov 8, 2018
Take your license and visit a DPS with a scheduled test date and with impact driver course. Take the test, pass it, take 2 address proof documents and you are done.
Good luck.
Yes you can apply for a Texas State I'D card at any DPS location. Make sure to bring a birth certificate or passport. Social Security card, and eirher school I'D, Shot records, w2 or 1099. Also, you will need 2 proofs of Texas residency within 30-90 days old. They can be 2 documents in your name with the same address, or bring someone you live with in to us with 2 of their residency documents.
No driving test needed for an ID!
What would it be more recommended try to get a driver's permit or try to change foreign license what all documents would i have to bring and cost thank you
Luis Cerros | Nov 7, 2018
Harikailash Gopalakrishnan | Nov 8, 2018
First: to get a driver's permit you have to take the learners course and get a temporary driver's license. Then in a month you can go on and take the test to get a permanent license. For this you need: passport, 2 address proof documents, impact driver certificate.
Second: to change a foreign license. I dont think you can directly apply for a change of license. You have to take the driver's test. Its mandatory in Texas. But you can drive with your foreign license for 90 days. Check if you can use it in Texas on hand.
Try visiting the DPS sometime. They will help you fix everything.
Good luck!!
You can set an appointment online to go in, and you will be given a number...watch the screen for your number to be called. All documents needed for state license transfers are online. You can download it, fill it out and be ready to go. Make sure you also download the checklist. Bring everything!
Go to a Mega Center...good luck!

How good does inline online work?
john bereuter | Nov 7, 2018
Wild Bill White! | Nov 8, 2018
John,
Getting inline on our website works great. We open online check in at 8;30 AM. Remember you can only check in online for the same day. If it does not go through the first time keep trying. The system allows only so many online appointments at a time. Especially if we are at capacity
Make sure when you are offered a time to accept it and follow all the pages. When the time is confirmed you will get a text confirming your time. If you do not get a text your appointment was not completed.
When you get to the DPS chececk in at the kiosk (must be less than 10 minutes before appointment). You will be helped in less than 1 hour.

You can go and take it at any time. But for time sake, your better off doing an online course(approved online courses). That way all you need to do at the dps is take the vision and driving test.

Sheila Washington | Nov 7, 2018

No. You can make one, it will cut down on your time there. But you just arrive and go to the kiosk to sign in.
Yes, nothing wrong with rental car, but make sure you have licensed driver with you in car, when the DMV officer come for test, he/she takes that passenger seat for test, no other person in car
A licensed driver to take you!! because you will get in trouble for taking yourself because you do not have a license yet. So find someone to drive you and call to schedule the appointment. Do not forget the certificate stating you took the course and passed!! Also two forms of ID. Btw if you have alreadt takenthe course online u do not need to pass a written test just the driving part
If I have warrants can I still get my i.d if I lost it.??🤔🤔
