I have been trying for weeks to get an appointment with DMV. My question is. My Florida driver's license expired in 2014. I was living abroad for 8 years. Back in Florida. What do I need to bring with me.

I just renewed my license and update my new address. The best thing that you can do is to visit to their website and make an appointment then bring your 2-3 recent mail and your previous ID.

Two forms of id, two pieces of mail and $40 to $60. Call and set up an appointment and i may be a month out.
