Easier online or walk in to grab forms and drop them back off or mail. Try to not have to wait, especially cuz at window 1 the woman isn't very helpful, in fact rude most of the time. But maybe you'll get another helper. Or go to Auburn DMV

Therese Stack | Sep 13, 2019
Jan Bell | Sep 13, 2019

Make an appointment, you'll fill out a Reg 156, bring in your one remaining plate, and they'll hand you two new plates. It will cost $22. You don't need an appointment, however it is definitely recommended.

Ruby Parmenter | Sep 12, 2021
Cory DeLaughter | Sep 12, 2021

In January I was able to just walk in for my class A permit test, but more recently I have heard that it's by appointment (from unreliable sources), however lately they don't seem to be as busy as in the past, maybe just grab everything you need to start the process and swing by, worst they can say is to make an appointment.

What is needed to renew a state ID?

Angie Buist | Sep 13, 2019
Three Travels | Sep 13, 2019

My experience, you are told one thing and when you get there, if you get the lady with the bad day, every day attitude at the first window, sadly you'll need everything, every document you own, if you get a normal worker, or depending on which DMV you go to, you'll just need what online or a representative has told you. Just feel you should be warned so that you're not overwhelmed or allow her to intimidate you. Wish you the best.

Come into the office and get new plates for the car you're selling. If you are transferring to a different vehicle at the same time, bring in the plates and your registration. You will need to complete a Reg17 to transfer and reassign your plates. You can make an appointment before you come in.

Cam | Sep 13, 2019
Jan Bell | Sep 13, 2019

You can make an appointment online but you don't need one. Once you pass the written test, you'll be given a permit. All first time drivers are given a permit. Then you will need to make an appointment for the behind the wheel test. Drives require an appointment. It's $36.

Shirley Snider | Sep 13, 2019

There is a form on the DMV website for getting a new copy of your registration. When I did this, it cost $20 to get the new registration and stickers and they were able to hand it to me at the counter. Debit, check, or cash was accepted, as I recall.

Can DMV still hold your licence for not paying child support.

Eric Geisick | Sep 13, 2018
Jeffrey Hein | Sep 13, 2018

Either CSS or the custodial parent would have to file against you for not paying child support. The judge can rule to have your license revoked. It's not common. I am not a lawyer, and am not giving legal advice.
