The Department of Revenue in Missouri has recently updated its requirements for obtaining a driver’s license or ID card. In an effort to streamline the process and ensure that all necessary documents are provided, the department has released a new checklist of required documents that applicants must submit when applying for a new license.
The checklist, which can be found on the department’s website at dor.mo.gov/driver-license/issuance/required-documents-checklist.html, outlines the specific documents that applicants must provide in order to prove their identity, residency, and legal presence in the United States. These documents include a birth certificate or passport to prove identity, a utility bill or lease agreement to prove residency, and a social security card or ITIN letter to prove legal presence.
“This new checklist is designed to make the process of obtaining a driver’s license or ID card as simple and straightforward as possible,” said a representative from the Department of Revenue. “By providing all necessary documents upfront, applicants can help expedite the processing of their application and ensure that they receive their license in a timely manner.”
In addition to the required documents, applicants must also complete a written and vision exam, as well as pay a fee for their license or ID card. The fee varies depending on the type of license being applied for and the applicant’s age. Applicants under the age of 21 will also have to complete a driver education program before they can receive their license.
The Department of Revenue has also made it easier for applicants to schedule appointments for their license or ID card application. Applicants can now schedule an appointment online through the department’s website, which allows them to choose a date and time that is convenient for them. This helps to reduce wait times and ensure that applicants can complete their application in a timely manner.
Overall, the new checklist of required documents is designed to make the process of obtaining a driver’s license or ID card in Missouri more efficient and convenient for applicants. By providing all necessary documents upfront and scheduling an appointment online, applicants can ensure that their application is processed quickly and that they receive their license in a timely manner.
