What to do if you failed the permit test in ca

Question

i am in california, and the dmv i went to is in fullerton. my brother failed the permit test the first time. when can he retake the permit test? and does he need to bring in all his paperwork (birth certificate) again and pay $28 again? does the paper work have to be filled out again? do we have to wait again to do the eye checking test? thank you.

Answer 1

he can take it again anytime he wants to. and this time u have to pay 48 dollars. when i failed the frist time it was 20 dollars. and the second time i payed 40 dollars.

i dont know what u mean by paper work. because when u take the test u bring the hourly driving log and money.  

Answer 2

hi, I just took my permit test on monday for the third time, and i failed :(, so that means I have to start the whole process again like pay the $28 again, fill out a form, show the paper work like my birth certificate and stuff, do the eye exam, and then take a picture.  Since your brother failed it once, he can take it again, but he has to wait a week before he can take it again.  He does not have to pay or do any of the things you listed.  So, when he comes in to take it again, he just goes straight to the window to where they give out the permit test, and then tells the person at that window that he wants to take a permit test.  They will ask him for his paper thing so make sure he brings his paper thing they gave him which is his receipt that is attached to the paper with a picture of him that they took.  I live in california also, but in san jose.  Well, good luck.
