Online Drivers License Renewal-TX

I know someone who did it recently and got the license in the mail within like 2 weeks.

 

I saw a special on Marvin Zindler or another similar news segment where a woman paid to have her license renewed online and they still made her go to the DPS and have her picture taken. I'd recommend calling the DPS about it.

 

i got mine renewed a few years ago online. i received the new license in about 1-2 weeks. they were really fast.

the only downside is the picture that was originally taken remains the same, so I still look like a teen in my pic.

but its kinda funny to show it to ppl nowadays.

 

I did it back in January of this year and I got mine in 3 weeks. Its the same picture as now and it costs 25.00 for renewal. 24.00 and then a 1.00 fee for online use. Hey it beats having to retake the tests.

 

I've heard people complain about having to go to the DPS and get a new picture... I think it's just got something to do with the whole aging thing... Depending on how long it's been since you've last taken a picture there, of course you'll look slightly different. I've used my same picture for the past 6 years, and I renewed mine online this time too. I'm pretty sure that in 2008 I'll have to take a new pic, but I'll be "old" then, so I'll need a new one.

 

Thanks for the idea. I just changed my address on my license online.

I've been meaning to get down to DPS and do this for two years now.

 

so they don't care if you can see or not anymore? vision tests etc..

 

Texas must be reeeeaaaaal slow. I got mine ( Indiana) in 2 days.

hey! we're a big state!! that's our excuse for everything.

 

Texas has more than 5 vehicles.

 

I thought it was going to take forever to get my last drivers liscence renewed or even the time i lost it. But they have changed how they do the lines and if you are just renewing or replacing a lost one you are in and out pretty quick. Everyone is not stuck in the same line like in the past so they have become a lot more efficient.

 

My Texas drivers' license expired years ago and I don't have a residence in Texas. I still have my old license, though. Could I renew it online and have the new one sent to Germany (or to a friend in Texas)?
