It was not busy at all. Bring your phone and be prepared to check in on the automated kiosk. I do not recommend showing up for a road test without an appointment. It is crazy busy on those days.

Questions & Answers
i thought I saw a way to go online and they acknowledge you and you have 2 hours to get there?
To get the "Real ID", with the star. You have to go to your local DMV. You must bring a certified birth certificate or passport, if you have had a name change you will also need a certified marriage certificate. You will need your social security card and two proofs of residence. This can be a voter registration or vehicle registration or a bill.
Bank statement with your address, paycheck stub, just a letter from your sister will not work the written statement will not work. Certified birth certificate or valid passport also
I am 16 years old I am coming in Monday for my license. What y’all do I need to bring. I know the Paper saying I have 50 hours of drive time and 10 hours and night time. But what else do I need to bring or what else will have to be filed out
Serenity Harrell | May 24, 2022
Reba Carter | May 24, 2022
Just your permit and your parent 🙂 Get there fifteen / twenty minutes before your appointment start time🙂 Make sure everything on your car works and that the tags are valid👍
Birth Certificate (color original) or passport, proof of SSN (bring the card), 2 proofs of residency (bring 2 recent and different utility bills with you). Have these documents and your license, and you'll be set.

According to the website, Columbus Day is not a day where state offices are closed. But don't take it from a stranger on the internet, I would definitely call before you leave your house.

Trish Baumann | Oct 21, 2021
Birth certificate, social security card, if under 18 you need a form from the school, and a parent will need to show their license/state ID/passport, and the parent will need to sign papers. If you are 18 or over, then you will also need to provide 2 proofs of residence.

Can an appointment be made for a learner’s permit so we don’t have to wait in line? And is it a knowledge test or a driver’s license test? Thanks.
Lori Landsberg | Oct 21, 2021
Purrty Cat In The Box | Oct 21, 2021
There is no test for a learners permit and no you can't put in an appointment a day ahead however you may be able to call 10min to 5 min ahead to book a spot in line but there system does not allow appointments that I know of
They do get a lot of people in there, and phones sometimes don't always get answered. It would be easier just to come up and pop in, there is a lady with glasses on that stands out at the desk to answer questions, making sure people stay in covid guidelines, she can answer your question. I'm headed there in the morning. They start lining up around 7:30am.
What is the latest you can go get in still take permit test or what time do they stop taking you for testing each day? Just not wanting to miss school days if can't test same day.
Shirley Baskerville | Oct 21, 2021
Zachary Nixon (Zachmire) | Oct 21, 2021
I think 4 PM is the latest they will take, but consult the website for better information. Tn.gov/safety
You would think they would make an exception because of the crisis and because of how close your deadlines are but I would call up there and try to get ahold of their customer service you may have to renew. I would give you a one month extension but I don't make the rules there's also

What are the requirements to take the drivers test in this location?
HeavenlyLariee | Oct 21, 2020
Brenda Byrd | Oct 21, 2020
If you are talking the driver's test you have to have an appointment. They do walk-ins on some things.
Normally it can take up to 2wks but I got mine within 7 days. You can always call to see if it really got mailed out because sometimes they could get stuck in the system.
Leslie, you may have to make a trip in person. Good luck!
My son did. He made the appointment for the written test then he asked if there were road tests available. They got him in for the road test about 2 hours after his written test.
so i turned 18 and i need to change my id from restricted to unrestricted how would i do that.
Brittaney Summers | Oct 21, 2020
Chaparras Family | Oct 21, 2020
Go online and make an appointment so you can get right in. Take your ID your birth certificate two proofs of residency your social security card. When you get there and they call your number just tell them you need to update your info i.e. no longer a minor... and get a new card you probably will have to pay the license fee again. You can always try to do it online as well. But it's better to go in person.

It depends on when your license expires. Duplicates are eight dollars mainly. Renewals are twentyeight dollars. The more endorsements you have the more it is also.

I went to renew my license on December 16, they gave me the paper one and they said that in 7 days the plastic one arrived and we are already on January 10 and not the one received, there is someone who is having the same thing or is it just me?
Win Madrid | Oct 21, 2020
Reba Carter | Oct 21, 2020
Typically, what they say is one two weeks. On the paper license(when you unfold it) it has instructions on who to contact if it has been twenty days and you still haven't received your license.
I'm trying to get my ID for being 18 and take my permit what do I need to bring?
rawrawtravis | Oct 21, 2020
Reba Carter | Oct 21, 2020
Study the book. Make sure you can pass the vision screening. State certified birth certificate , social security card , two proofs of address. You can use your parents documents if you still live with them and have none of your own. Utility bills that were mailed to the house within the past four months, pay stub, voter's card...things like that you can use for address🙂

My son is 20 yrs old, only have an ID. Does he have to get a permit first before he get a license? I ask cause I didn't get my license until 21 yes of age. I didn't go through having to get permit first.
Letisha Luster | Oct 21, 2020
Jennifer Gray | Oct 21, 2020
As long as he is over 18, he just has to pass the written and road test to get a license. Graduated licences are only for drivers under 18.
To get a State ID what I have is birth certificate raised sealed form the state, comcast cable bill, bank statement, Sumner county clerk vehicle registration letter, and social security card. Is this all I need?
Jay Street | Oct 21, 2020
Jennifer Gray | Oct 21, 2020
Sounds right. The only other thing you would need is documentation if your name has changed since birth. This didn't apply to my husband, but I had to show my marriage certificate since my last name changed.
Are driving test walk ins Mondays or Wednesdays ?
Jay Thom | Oct 22, 2019
Jasmine Washington | Oct 22, 2019
Every other Wednesday. If you want to learn more, you can call up gallatin to check for driving test walk ins.
You can go to any DSC (driver service center, Tennessee actually doesn't have a DMV. Which sometimes causes issues trying to find locations😅) But the waits have increased quite a bit with the influx of Real ID and new residents. Best to get their before opening and definitely avoid Mondays, Fridays and any time schools out😅

You should have you paper temp license. If you haven't received it, it goes back to the state and shreds it. So you'll have to go online and get a duplicate.

For an adult that has never had a TN driver license or ID...STATE certified birth certificate, ss card(or at least know the ssn), TWO proofs of address(no copies, no computer print outs, no cell phone bills, no receipts/deposit slips, no faxes, no advertisements, no magazines ,no personal letters)utility bills/bank statements received by mail are ok as long as they are NOT more than four months old. There are a few other stipulations and approved pieces, but that's the gist of it. Twelve dollar fee
