This place is ridiculous. The staff is rude. I waited in line for an hour just for them to say they only taking forty people a day. Something needs to be done.

Have to be here 2,3 hours earlier for walk-ins. Employees are overall professional and cooperative. Yet, there is always a big line outside the building every morning. We definitely need more DPS building.

Takes months to get in. Service is unreliable. Told by the prescreening lady that I had all the identifying documents I needed, but when I went back to get my ID was told that I didn't. Reschedule and do it all over again.
Can I schedule a driver test on phone on my son behalf since we couldn't get it done on line, and he hasn't been given a chance at school?

How do I schedule an appointment to get a driver license online it’s not allowing me
Maria Perez | Oct 11, 2020
monique granger | Oct 11, 2020
Hello good morning to schedule an appointment for your driver license visit public.txdpsscheduler.com
You can be a walk-in but they only a take limited number. If you are a walk-in I would suggest getting there when they open. At the very least, I suggest you get there by 11:00 as a walk-in but be prepared to get setup on an appointment for another day if you are not there as late as 11:00.
My son and I made an appointment online but since the date was so far out, we went in as a walk-in and they made us an appointment for an earlier date that wasn't on their calendar. Good luck
My son needs a state I'd for work and as a identifaction form of ID with a picture can I get it here ?
Gidget Perez | Oct 12, 2018
Ricardo Cedillo | Oct 12, 2018
Yes he can. He'll more than liky need you to go with him. You'll need two ways of proving his Identification like his school ID or transcript. 2 proofs of residency like a water bill etc. Something that has your name or his name, the address, and a valid date.
What number can I call to get in contact with a worker? I want to see if I am able to use bank statements or check stubs as proof of address but can’t seem to get in contact with anyone?

You can use bank statements
Can i take my medical card for my cdl at this location
If I was you,don't use the website just go. I don't know if you live in Grand prairie but..if you do that is the one be there before 8:00 because it's crowded and they will give you a appointment.
Yes you can still get a ticket for the same day appointment. But you will have to be there early at 5:30 or 6:00 AM to wait until they open the doors and give the ticket you.
But if you want to go urgently you can go without an appointment but very early because they give a limited number of appointments for the same day but in order of arrival, my recommendation is that you get up early
How do I get a driver's license in Grand Prairie, TX? I have a current Illinois license. Do I have to take any tests for my license. I also need to get new license plates. Can I get them the same place as my license?
Donna Powell | Oct 11, 2020
Eldrin Green Jr. | Oct 11, 2020
Ok, ......I say pause because Texas has a whole different little order of operations for other states. My wife is from Chicago and we both moved here from Va. with the SAME circumstance. First things first: you HAVE to get your car registered in the state FIRST. You (may) be able to do that in at this office but they may send you to your town's court office. (We did this in Irving before we moved to GP). You must make sure you have your insurance and proof of residency (bills) and your previous registration. BE PREPARED: they're going to charge you the regular registration fee for 1 year + some damn "new residents" fee which I think was like $150...(I think). The only plus is that they hand you your new license plate right away instead of having to wait for it to be sent to you.Then you take your papers to the department of public safety (wait in a nice long line) and submit those for your license (which you must pay a fee for). No test. Check online thoroughly for requirements
If you are over 21, and you want to renew your license because it still says under 21 and dont expire until 2021, can you just coMe in and renew? If so, what documents are needed and how much does it cost?

Amiya | Jul 13, 2022

No you can renew your permit for a regular license the day of your appointment for the road test. Just make sure you have the second certificate for the completion of your driving course. Also make sure you have done the the impact video.
For an air brake endorsment I'll take a written test, will I also need a truck for any part of the test?
michael martin | Jun 13, 2022
Jr Williams | Jun 13, 2022
Yes you will need a Truck, but back in February 8,2022 in order to obtain a CDL License you have to attend a Driving School. That is the only way to obtain a CDL,the Law changed.
Okay this is the way I see it if it's not going to hurt you to take it if you have it take it if you don't I don't think that it's necessary cuz they should have yours on record they had mines on record I have to go and get a new driver's license every year but I am on that record I don't have to go and take my birth certificate or anything else if they scan your birth certificate it should be in their computer files but and I say but because if it's not going to hurt anything to take it take it that way you know that you're prepared take anything that you think they might ask for and be prepared it's nothing like being prepared stay ready you don't have to get ready
I went in person cause I couldn't get though on the phone

Barbey Scott | Feb 13, 2022
Show up early in the morning, be among the first ones there any you can still renew your license or iD
Only if it is a continuation from another visit. If it is your first visit you must have an appointment and they're just a bunch of good people that's trying to get a job done
12/27/21I overheard the front customer service rep tell a man " There are NO WALK IN APPOINTMENTS" You must have an appointment!! You book an appointment online..
Yes. They are operating by appointment only for all services. The office in Garland said you can wait around for a cancellation if you want to do a walk-in but no guarantee that you'll be seen. They're booking appointments pretty far in advance...the last time I checked they were scheduling into October!
I was there 4 weeks ago for my Learn drive license, since today i don't get it what can i do?they sent me to go to do reading text i don't know where to go.
Veronique Kayembe | Oct 11, 2021
Neel Priyadarshi | Oct 11, 2021
Did you get "temporary license " printed at the time of DPS visit? If so verify mailing address etc is correct on that. There is no reading test but if you are talking about PTDE , please go online at DPS site and it has wealth of information.
Good afternoon. I have a question. I used some appointments to get I’d where I can find the number that they give to confirm the appointment?

If you never had one you cant,if you did go to there website and follow the directions

Angelica Rubio | Oct 11, 2021

Go up there early in the morning to make a line and they will hand out a small paper with a time frame, the farthest on the line you are different time frames are giving each person on the piece of paper to come back if you don't have an appointment that day, so go there early and to get an earlier time frame they open at 7
My license doesn't expire til next January. They asked me if I wanted to go ahead and renew. So for 33.00 I'm good for another 9 years.
Im 18 and i just moved here from oklahoma, how can proof of residence in texas, and texas vehicle registration and I just moved down here?
D johnson | Oct 11, 2021
Rebecca Woods | Oct 11, 2021
There is a link on this page about registering your car. Go to the driver's license page to see about proof of residency. I want to say you'll need a utility bill in your name but am unsure.
They will not see you without an appointment. We went last month and they were turning away everyone without an appointment. I do not know of its the same in all locations.
If its been lost and you have the same address, you should be able to order another without issue through the DPS website. If you don't have the same address, you can go through the website to make an appointment. You'll need to bring proof of identification and proof of residency (check the website for a list of usable items)
Not sure what you meant by regular ID but they do process state identification card. Hope this helps.
I need to make an appointment to go do my road test, but when I enter the site to do the appointment it does not load the page, what can I do?

Yes. They won't let you inside without the appointment number.
Although, as per the information on the dps website, walk-in will be available on a limited basis at all locations. However, to be 100% sure I would highly recommend to go with an appointment.
Hope this information helps you.
You can schedule the appointment by going to dps.texas.gov
Just FYI, the servicing is by appointment only. They check the appointment before letting you in.

your written test score is only good for two years. This means you should head to the DPS with your certificate and test for your license within two years of your certificate’s issue date.
For proof of identity can I bring my regular id and social security??
You will probably need a US birth certificate or passport and two documents for proof of residency. Go to dps.texas.gov and you can see what documents you can use

Paola Rojas | Oct 12, 2019
Quinton Turner | Oct 12, 2019
The vehicle used for the test must have insurance. You do not need to be in your insurance at the time of the test drive, but once you pass, I suggest you add it as soon as possible. They just want to make sure the car is insured for liability reasons.
Good question.... but the best answer is: Just don't go to this location. You're better off going to the Fort Worth location. *check my earlier review*. Trust me
