Honestly one of the better DMV experiences I've had. These folks were fast, efficient, and helpful. Even though I had printed the wrong form they helped me sort that out quickly.

With no appointment and arriving 30 minutes after opening on a Wednesday, I waited 30 minutes to renew my driver's license. Renewing my license took 15 minutes. Overall it was a good experience. However if everyone needs to go through this process to get a RealID license, I don't know how that is going to be possible.

Went in on a Monday around noon. Took a number. 2 people were ahead of me. Explained my situation to the lady at the counter. She was very friendly and helpful. However, to get my permit I had to take the full driver's test. Studied for 25 minutes, passed the exam but still had to make an appointment for the practical test. All in all, it took me probably 45 minutes to get everything done and the service was super friendly and efficient. Quite surprising giveb the kind of people the employees have to deal with on a daily basis...

I know the DMV has a reputation for being terrible, but I was pleasantly surprised by an awesome experience! I moved here recently and had made an appointment to get my Oregon ID card. My girlfriend was the one who made the appointment actually, but she said it was easy to do online. My appointment was for 12:00 or so and hers was for 2:30. We got there a little late, at 12:15 or so. When we got there there were maybe 10-15 people sitting in chairs waiting to be seen. It was pretty spatious, not crowded. There was a separate area to sit for people who had made appointments. I sat there with my girlfriend, and basically right away someone called us up to be seen! The guy asked if we had an appointment. I sad mine was for 12:00 and I'm a little late. He said it's fine. I asked if my girlfriend could be seen too to get her drivers license even though her appointment is for later, and he said yeah. Awesome! From there things went pretty smoothly. We were out within 20 mins or so. The guy who helped us was very nice. He even anticipated an issue where I wrote down "Apt #616" for my address, but on the letter I handed him it said something like "STE 616". He said it should be fine but it's safer to redo it saying "STE 616" because the way they check it they look to see if stuff matches and it's possible that someone declines it for not being an exact match. I really appreciated that heads up. I think it showed that he was actually paying attention and trying to do a good job. When I went to get my picture taken, I was helped by a different person. The guy did his thing and got my picture taken. When I finished he spoke pretty quickly explaining something to me and handed me a piece of paper. I didn't really understand so I asked a question. He gave a brief answer. I asked a follow up question. He said it's all explained in more detail in that handout. Some people might be upset with that sort of "customer service", but y'know what, I was happy! This isn't a fancy restaurant where their job is to cater to you. He was trying to weigh my needs with the needs of everyone else waiting to be seen in a timely fashion, and I think he made the right judgement. Plus he was right, it was all explained on that handout.

Can I buy a car with my driver licence of the Brazil?

Marcus Vinicius Kist | Jan 3, 2021
Peter Mordashev | Jan 4, 2021

You can buy almost anything without any id, including a car. I assume you are asking whether you can Register it and get license plates so its legal to drive. For that you would need proof of Oregon residence. I believe you can register car without applying for OR DL but i may be wrong. Address proof, insurance, signed title, passport with i94 and Brazil DL should be enough

Esther Brown | Jun 7, 2021
Kek Mandu | Jun 8, 2021

Gather what info you might have that relates, try to apply online and make that appointment to dmv because they will help you. In some cases the site will let you know if you can do online yourself or not but make the appointment to get it rolling cause it might be a month or so to see them and you can always cancel.

Yes you should be able to do it online, but I believe they send renewal by mail. Depends how automatic renewals you had? than you have to go to DMV office.

Is open to any time.or have a poiment istill??

gustavo Garcia | Jan 3, 2021
Synkai Harrison | Jan 4, 2021

The office is 'open' but the doors are locked. To get in, you have to have an appointment. They check their list of appointments for that day at the door. Last week they closed several offices due to the fires and they weren't taking appointments online. I would check their website or call. I doubt they'll be taking walk-ins anytime soon. They've removed almost all the waiting chairs from the office. The good news is, today I was in and out less than 15 minutes

Tried going without an appointment just to find out you absolutely need an appointment. Make one now! Also, theyre being lenient about expired things until the 31st of December of this year.

Their processes are really convoluted, and everyone seems to have a different response. There's a info desk when you walk in, normally no line. They can direct you somewhat but ultimately the people at the counter will have the step by step for you
