Had an appointment today at 10am. Got there at 9am, NO LINE! Anthony helped us, he was friendly and very informative... we needed 2 more forms and He allowed us to go get them and return by noon. We came back, he finished helping us and we were on our way. Thanks Anthony!

Terrible campground. For walk-ins, I'd recommend bringing mosquito spray and something to sit on if you don't arrive early enough. Line up on the left benches for walk-ins and right side for appointments. I'd recommend lining up at the campground very early, but in fear of making earlier miserable lines I won't say when. Just as early as you see fit, then if too many people are there, try earlier the next day. I believe they only accepted 11 walk-ins the day we went. After camping, the process was efficient enough, but you better hope all your documents are correct. The lady was patient and kind, but camping was still more enjoyable than the DPS part of the experience. Camping gets a 2/5 stars. DPS gets 1/5 stars. The department should really streamline the documentation verification process online, because lack of doing so makes the current process so fun and enjoyable. Also, if you can't camp or wait months for an appointment, try setting an appointment at more rural areas.

how do I transfer an out of state license?

Why does your "Get in line online" option not work anymore?

imani porter | Oct 2, 2018
Bo Dong | Oct 2, 2019

it opens each weekday at 7am, it gets booked up fully quickly. they never tell people it opens at 7am unless you know it. if you try to use it at 7:3.,most likely, it gets full for the whole day already, it will show greyed out, meaning no more slots for that day. you.can still go in person, but need to wait in line for several hours.

How do I get a new license???

Brian Jenkins | Oct 2, 2017
Sai Blair | Oct 2, 2018

If you have out of state license, you have to bring TWO doc proof that you residence here, could be utilities bills or car insurr with your address and name on it. Then, SSN card. Go there, wait in line, fill out the form. Wait, and show them docs and IDs , pay the fees, they will mail you ur new texas license. If you do not have US license, you will need to take a knowledge test, right there on computer screen and get the leaner permit, then take the driving test ( have to schedule it another day). There are only 5 countries driver licenses the US would accept and not required takeing test.

Can you here. No where on website can you do this. Followed all instructions and didn't get anywhere. Can't find a phone number either

I am a veteran and due to the new law, I would need a placard. My placard expired last year. Can I pick one up, or would it have to be sent to me after filling out the proper documents?

Gary Johnson | Feb 3, 2022
Locke O'Dea | Apr 4, 2022

Hello! If you're referring to a disability placard, that process is handled by your city's court office, not DPS. You can look up their number and give them a call for more information about what to bring in for the placard renewal.

Can I walk in to get Texas license without any appointment? There are no appointments available until January of 2022.

Sunny | Oct 1, 2021
Paul Sullivan | Oct 1, 2021

Ignore the other answer that says you can't. You absolutely can. But get there early. I mean aim for 4 am and bring a chair to wait in line until they open. They give appointments on the same day, but they are extremely limited and first come, first serve.

I recently got married. What information do I need to bring to change my last name on my license? Just my marriage certificate? Does it need to be a certified copy?

Jalyn Taylor | Oct 1, 2021
Renee Zieba | Oct 1, 2021

Congratulations! I honestly have no idea. I have never been married. Try googling or calling the DPS itself. You just may have to deal with a long wait time. Or go in person! It's opened up now. Good luck!

What's the requirements to obtain my Texas drivers license/id

Ikenna Kalu | Oct 1, 2020
Chris Dee | Oct 1, 2020

Proof of address, passport or birth certificate, former ID, and about 8 hrs of free time.

Can I use electronic bills for proof of residency? We do all bills/payments electronically and we do not have a printer to print them off

Justin VanderSchaaff | Oct 2, 2019
Locke O'Dea | Apr 4, 2022

While I was in the office yesterday a gentleman asked this question and was directed to email the bills to a designated DPS email. So, I presume the answer is yes! Their one warning was that you will have to wait quite a while for the email to come through, and the gentleman was definitely waiting for at least an hour.

How early should I get there before they open to get in line? 7:30? 7:00? 7:45? (All am's)

Skylar Coltran | Oct 2, 2019
Charlene Simril | Oct 2, 2019

7am, line starts forming around then, by 7:30/7:45am, there is a significant line. But if you're able to have access to a computer an Internet and you are open to an afternoon appointment, the online appointment scheduling opens at 7am. You schedule your appointment, you may get an afternoon time, but a very minimal wait. It was worth it for me than standing in a line for 1-2 hours!

I live in Dallas County in Irving, can I come to this office at Mckinney to change my address or do I need to go to the local DMV at Irving in Dallas county?

PritzPreity | Oct 2, 2018
Nichy Brown | Oct 2, 2018

You can go to ANY office as long as it's in Texas. I lived in Austin and changed my address in the McKinney office and was told the same thing, but you must change it within 30 days of your move. The proof that you need is an electric bill, lease and/or anything government related with the new address.

I have my driving test appointment. do I need any further paperwork to bring in to dps .

Leonel Padilla | Oct 2, 2018

Just proof of your driving course and documentation of identity. Make sure you there early, unless you want to stay there all day. Good luck! : )

Can I apply on line for an Identiitiy card?

Carole McLaughlin | Feb 3, 2022
Dp ky | Feb 3, 2022

Typically, all you can do online is schedule appointments, renew some licenses, and submit a question to dps. Questions submitted to dps do get answered albeit a week or so later. An ID requires them to take a photo, observe your physical citizenship and proof of residency documents. All of which can only be done ln person. Although, I imagine high profile people may have other options available to them via attorneys and high priced agents though.

I have a CA driver's license. How do I convert to a TX driver's license.

Judith Smalley | Oct 1, 2021
Mandy Anderson | Oct 1, 2021

New Texas residents can legally drive with a valid, unexpired driver license from another U.S. state, U.S. territory, Canadian province, or qualifying country for up to 90 days after moving to Texas. Prior to the end of the 90 day grace period, a new Texas resident must apply for a Texas license in person at any driver license office to continue to drive legally. When applying for the new Texas license the individual must surrender any unexpired driver license in their possession from another U.S. state, U.S. territory or a Canadian province. Applicants who have a valid, unexpired driver license from another U.S. state, U.S. territory, or from Canada must surrender their out of state/country driver license and are not required to take the knowledge or skills exams.  Over 18 Texas will require proof of: Identity (a valid out of state license can be used as a supporting document) Residency Citizenship Social security number Evidence of Texas Vehicle Registrat insurance

Do I need to wait in line to get a handicap placard?

Locke O'Dea | Apr 4, 2022

Nope! Handicap placards are issued by your local court office, not the DPS. Fortunately, they have much shorter lines! You can give your city's court office a call and they can walk you through the process.

How do I make an appointment online for my road test? Every time I call the Dps I’m only talking to an automated machine and I’ve tried to do it online but it’s not letting me click any hours or days to schedule, someone PLEASE help me!

There should be an option to schedule your appointment and then click schedule your road test. It will ask you for your license number, your birthday , and then you will be given some dates you could pick from. Hope this helps

I have restrictions for corrective lenses but have had cataract surgery in both eyes. i have a form from an eye specialist stating i don't need glasses. Report of vision without glasses 20/20 right eye----20/25 left eye----20/20 both eyes. ?????

Yes. Go into the DPS office and show them this form to have this restriction lifted. There might be some forms that you will have to fill out. In the meantime, you might like to ask DPS for Handicapped tags (temporary ones) since you have this form from the doctor until you feel comfortable enough to drive with your new eyesight. Good luck! : )

Call DPS and notify them of the situation. In the meantime, go to a DPS office and get a print-out of what they're going to send you, and make sure you keep that copy in your wallet just in case you get pulled over. By the way, congratulations! : )

Go online and set the appointment. It will give you the options for timing and also tell you what to bring. I know youll need a government ID with photo like a passport. There are other options though. Go online to the website. It gives you all of this information.
