How do I apply for a New Mexico driver's license?

If you are a first-time New Mexico licensee age 18 to 24 you will be are required to take the "None for the Road" self-study DWI awareness class. First, a) complete the "None for the Road" course; then b) take your certificate of completion and other required identification (see question #5), to any Motor Vehicle Division Field Office to apply for your license. Note: Individuals who are age 25 or older are not required to take the "None for the Road" course.

What should I take with me to the Motor Vehicle Division Field Office to get a New Mexico driver's license?

You will need to provide one (1) proof of identification number; one (1) proof of identity and two (2) proofs or New Mexico residency. If you are eligible for a Social Security number (SSN) your proof of identification number will be your Social Security card or a verification document from Social Security confirming your SSN. If you are not eligible for a Social Security card, you will be required to provide a valid passport issued by your country of citizenship; a Matricula Consular issued after February 1, 2005 by the Mexican Consulate in Albuquerque or El Paso; or an individual tax identification number (ITIN) card or the letter from the IRS issuing your ITIN. A complete list of acceptable identification and residency documents is available on line, in the Publications section of this web site at http://www.tax.state.nm.us/pubs/chartnmd... .

At age 15 you can get the NM learners permit, and after 6 months you can sit the test for the license.
