The DMV will only mail a license to the address on the license. (I certainly hope they changed this rule for your sake.)

I had all these issues trying to forward to an address in Jersey. When the USPS received my license at the forwarding location they were forced to return it to sender. Best of luck

Could you clarify a little more about the addresses? So you originally put down your out of state address and it didn’t work so you had to change it to a prior address you had in state?

If that’s the case I could just mail it to a member of my family in state and have them mail it out to me when they receive it.

Also taking the day off is not an option unfortunately, mailing is sort of my only shot.

I’m not solely relying on this Reddit post as my single point of information for this process.

It’s just a good way to gather an idea of what to expect before I actually call them tomorrow.

Despite being out of state we are in the same time zone. It is ten o’clock at night right now. Now I don’t know how the DMV works but as a (federal) government employee I can make a pretty good guess that this state government institution probably isn’t open, and probably isn’t taking calls right now.

So yeah, thanks genius, I’ll be sure to call them…when they’re open.

I can’t answer some of your questions but I hope my experience gives you some insight on potential issues you may encounter. I renewed my license online but tried to “mail forward” to my current residence. During the mail forwarding process the license was kicked back to Trenton dmv. Where it sat for 6 months, I called every single day for months and when I finally got through they told me what had happened. I had to change my address and then resubmit my license to the new address.

You might be better off taking the day off and coming down to get the new Lic.

> In the 26 months since the Jan. 6, 2021 attack, more than 999 individuals have been arrested in nearly all 50 states for crimes related to the breach at the U.S. Capitol that day, including over 320 who have been charged with assaulting or impeding law enforcement. The investigation remains ongoing, the statement said.

I hope the Hawaiians and Alaskans stayed home for this one.
