On Jun 2nd I went in, waited 3 hours, finally got to pay for my license. 3 months later and I still have not received my license. Called multiple times in the past months and haven't heard anything back. Horrible service. Update: Finally got a hold of someone and they said it was only just shipped out, 3 months after I paid for it?? Was told in a week I should have it.. don't see why it would take 3 months to ship.

It's amazing that they opened at 8 am on Friday and I had a 815 appointment. At 820 they come out and say system is down and they don't know when it will be back up. This is frustrating since they are consolidating and making you drive all the way to Covington then the system goes down 20 minutes after opening. Why?

This place is literally a joke. Their system setup is a joke and so are their non wanting to work employees. I lost my license unfortunately about 2 months ago came here late one afternoon had no issue walking in and getting my license remade. Today, I come here to get yet another copy it's 1:42 the place is packed with a sign that says walking full make appt online with the soonest being October. I have to wait until the morning to do a walk in now the lady said. What gad changed in 2 months, not even a full 2 months. I need it now not in the morning. A woman needing a passport was turned away as well. If you don't want to work get a different job!!!!

Yes, you can go to any office in the state to renew. If your license has been expired for more than 5 years, you will need to retest at the Independence or Burlington office.

The Simon Kenton office is temporarily closed due to COVID. If you did not have a change of address or have a CDL you should get a replacement by mail.

Is the new " Real ID" compliant drivers license available in Kenton County yet?

valcinti | Oct 27, 2019
Driver Licensing Regional Office | Oct 27, 2019

Unfortunately the new Travel compliant licenses have only rolled out to two KY counties and Kenton is NOT one of them. Additionally no other counties are scheduled to receive them, so we have no idea when they will be available in Kenton. Your current license is good for travel through September 2020.
