Well organized. In and out quickly. I had the paperwork for my license filled out in advance, and the confirmation number, so it was easy.

Shadezjiah Pollard | Oct 9, 2018

No. You have to have your own vehicle or a friend/family member's, that is completely up to code, in order to take the test to get your license. This means every headlight, tail light, turn signal and hazards have to work, no cracked or otherwise damaged windshield, good tires, registered, among other things I may not be accounting for.

what documents do I need to get a state ID

Justin MacPhail | Oct 9, 2019
Andrea DuBose | Oct 9, 2019

If you currently have a GA license or ID card you'll need a birth certificate to replace, proof of address if it needs to be changed. If your GA license or ID has been expired for more than two years you'll need a certified birth certificate, proof of social, and proof of address. If your name has changed from the birth certificate you'll need a complete name trail. Certified marriage licenses and divorce decrees. Adoption documents or legal name change documents. If your current license or ID is from out of state you'll need to bring it with you. If it is lost, stolen, or no longer in your possession then you'll need a certified driving record, yes even if you're only getting an ID, the driving record must come from the other states department. So it can be faxed to the DDS of your choice or mailed to you. They will not be accepted if printed offline. The driving record are only good for 30 days. For any additional information please use the website. DDS.GEORGIA.GOV

My wife doesn't drive anymore but she will need picture identification. Can she get one from the drivers license office snd if so what it the cost?

Dean wohlgemuth | Oct 9, 2019
Andrea DuBose | Oct 9, 2019

Is her current GA license or ID expired? If it's expired more than two years then she may need more documents than just her license/id. Both licenses and IDs are $32. So if there's a possibility that she may want to drive again then you're encouraged to keep the license. But it's her volition on whether or not she surrenders her license.
