When will I get my California driver license in the mail?

Question

I passed my driving license test on July 11th and I am wondering when will I be getting my actual license with my ID on it in the mail.

Answer 1

You are given the interim license (half sheet of paper) initially. This will usually be valid for 60 days. Within that period of time your hard DL will be coming to you in the mail. They usually tell you 4 to 6 weeks. But, in most cases they come within 2 to 3 weeks. Sometimes earlier. I have never heard from my clients of getting theirs past the 4 week mark.

If it hits the 4 week mark, you can always call DMV and confirm if one has been mailed out as of yet.
