California Drivers License Question?

-Hello, I have my California interim drivers license and the real license hasn't been mailed to me since the last three months. I waited patiently and recently I started to worry since they haven't mailed it to me yet, and even worse, my interim license recently expired.

I discovered the possible root of my problems lying in the fact that I used a P.O. box for my address on my interim license (long story) and this isn't allowed.

Would I have to request an address change with my local DMV, and then will they begin the process of mailing me my real license? Or does anyone have any helpful info they can relate to me? Thank you for helping.It sometimes takes three months just because they are slow. The address might not be the problem. Call them and see if they mailed the real license. If they just have not gotten to it yet, they will send another interim license, for free. If you cannot wait, then you can get another interim license at the local DMV office.



Real licenses are not sent by the local DMV offices. There is one location that sends them for the whole state, which is probably why they take so long.
