These days, keeping everything in order is a little harder than it used to be. So, we've provided you with a helpful checklist of the necessary forms that we hope eases your mind just a bit.
- Completion Certificate from our online Drivers Ed course.
- Your parent, guardian or foster parent must have his or her driver's license or state-issued identification card number.
- Proof of legal presence (legal presence means that a person is either a U.S. citizen or is legally authorized to be in the United States)
- Proof of Virginia residency.
- Your Social Security Number (if you have been issued one).
All documents must be originals and will be subject to verification.
When you apply for a learner's permit, you will also complete the application process for your driver's license and pay the fees for both the permit and license.
For information on current requirements and acceptable documents, refer to "Acceptable Documents for Obtaining a Driver's License or Photo ID Card" (DMV 141).
