Tips For License Applicants With The Atlanta Dds

By Ruthie Livingston


When your drivers license expires, or you need to apply for the first time, you will be required to visit the Department of Drover Services. Here, you will get all the help and information you need regarding your application or renewal. However, there are certain requirements that one needs to be aware of so as to avoid traveling to and from the department more than once. Below are some tips to help you out before you visit the Atlanta dds.

Most local departments do not provide all the services provided at the headquarters. Their services are tailored to meet the needs of the locals, and hence, if you require something that is not required by most locals, you may have to travel to the main offices. The good news, though, is that you may be allowed to make personal appointments.

Know the amount required for your application or renewal. The charge is occasionally updated, so it is advisable to confirm. You should also confirm whether you are allowed to pay through other methods other than cash. In most cases, you can pay through credit or debit cards, too.

A number of documents are also required. New applicants are required to fill and surrender the DDS-1 form to the department. This form can be downloaded online. It should be signed and certified by the school administration. A parent or guardian should also sign one affidavit form, depending on the type of training that the applicant has undergone.

The department also requires those applying to prove their identities. This can be done using a birth certificate or a passport. Without these documents, it may not be possible to prove that you are indeed the person mentioned in the application papers. Another important document in this list is the social security card.

You will also be required to prove that you are a resident of Atlanta. There are so many people who live in this jurisdiction, but they are not officially registered as residents. Hence, before you are approved, you need to provide proof such as a light, water, or gas bill, or a bank statement.

Once you have all these documents, you will undergo a road test. The government does not want any questionable drivers on the roads. This is to ensure public safety. Hence, the officers will take you on the road to evaluate your proficiency and understanding of the driving rules and road signs. The DDS allows people to make appointments for the test.

Timing is also key. If you are not careful, you may take a lot of time at the department. Avoid the early opening hours, unless you want to be the first to be served. Days before and after holidays and end moths are also not ideal.

There are cases where an individual uses a name other than the one in the birth certificate. In that case, all that is needed is a court document authorizing the change of names. Otherwise, this is normally a very simple process.
