The line moved pretty quickly for only 2 people working there and within 5 minutes I was at the front. They were not able to offer what I needed (a title in my hands that day) but did give me a map to where I could get an instant re-issue and were extremely nice about the whole thing. Thinking back, I've had to wait, but if you don't go right at 11:50 you can get in and out in a jiffy.. the place can only handle 3 clerks and about 6 people inside, which is a pain sometimes, but for a govt office it moves. One thing to beware of is people putting on their stickers in the parking lot. They're easy to run over and may mess up your finish.

Staff have been professional and handled their business. Today was exceptional though because they have a tenured staff member at a table who is taking people as they enter and directing them and letting them know if they have all the right forms. She is clear about her expertise and calm and personable. When she had to redirect people, she did so in a respectful way. It was a welcome change from just going to a kiosk.

MY GOAL: To obtain a REAL ID and renew my license that had expired in the last two weeks…read more TIME SPENT: Under 2 hours total --- 30min to upload documents one business day prior, 45min waiting for the office to open, 15min waiting in line during office hours, and ~10minutes to get thru check-in, document review, and re-activating my license with a future REAL-ID. EVENTS: I completed my real ID verification document uploads the proceeding Friday. I belatedly discovered my license had expired, but also that I needed a real ID to comply for the spring 2025 mandate. Late Friday afternoon, I uploaded .pdfs of a W-2 form (SS verifying document), bank statement (redacted and only cover page with address), and credit card statement (redacted and only cover page with address), with accompanying active passport (photo page only). This was deemed sufficient and surprisingly approved Friday late afternoon (in hours!) by email with a confirmation code and 30d expiration. After I printed my documents at home in black/white (both redacted and full versions, the latter was an unnecessary back-up), I arrived at 7:45 AM the following Monday without an appointment. I was number 12 in line. For context number one arrived at 7 AM at this Franklin location. Some of us early birds brought lawn chairs. And behind me, there were over 30 individuals by the time the office opened at 8:30 AM. 15 minutes prior to the office opening, two helpful employees (one elderly woman named Crooks) went down the line and asked each individual about the reasons for their presence there today, as well as to reviewed the appropriate documents. I had pre-printed my redacted abbreviated uploaded documents, which were deemed usable. I had the upload confirmation code, as additional proof. At 830, the office opened, and by 8:45 AM I had reached the front of the line. Of note, I tried obtaining an e-ticket, but it repeatedly failed at the final step 4, with a VDI error. The "check in desk agent", with Parkinsonian hand tremor, reviewed the documents and required the assistance of another, apparently more experienced, but also elderly individual, to navigate screens on the computer to appropriately check my printed documents that I provided. These were deemed accurate (despite me offering the confirmation code of my previously uploaded documents - no idea if they were cross-checking). I was then asked to scan a QR code, which checked me in, and texted me some simple questions (btw I did this during the computer check-in shenanigans). Next I was directed a kiosk, which they called an 'iPad', of which there were three, and digitally confirmed some simple demographic-type questions, took a digital photo, and received a paper receipt of a active drivers license with the printed official copy to arrive in the mail in the subsequent 20 days. No fees for my expired license! I Concluded my kiosk time at 8:54. As I departed, I was overhead called to one of the ~7 cubicles on the left side of the office space, but then, I was shooed away, as my experience was deemed complete at the kiosk. Maybe the cubicle land was for those who had an appointment, an e-ticket, an initial license, or more complex need - I have no idea. In Short, despite some of the daunting reviews and the uncertainty on the DMV website itself, lack of ability to ask any questions at all beforehand, and a limit to readings on Reddit, Quora, and Google, I found this experience to be better than my expectations were set at, and I was quite pleased. Hopefully your journey will be as smooth as mine, even with an expired license in the state of TN.

Recently moved to TN and needed to get a new DL. If you need a DL please, please make sure you have…read morethe documents you need. I needed my old DL and 2 proofs of residency and be ready to make a payment for your DL as well as ready to take a picture. I came in the day before to find out what I needed in order to be proactive. The following day I came without an appt at 8:45 am and it was already packed so remember get there early. Appts didn't seem to make a difference because the two people that sat next to me had appts and were not seen until 2 hours after their appt time. So get there before they open is what I advise. Take a book, charged phone or work items to work on because you will be there a while. To give context I finished a book while waiting. Yes, a whole novel was completed in addition to chatting with people I sat next to. Came in at 8:45 and left at 3pm. Spent so long there that the people I sat with instantly bonded and started clapping for each other each time one of us finally got called up to claim the golden ticket of finally being able to be helped and leave. Be ready to be there the whole day and remember to park in the designated areas as the back parking lot belongs to another business and you will be towed. The customer service was kind and helpful but more staff would be great to service the amount of people that are coming each day. So moral of all of this is: 1. Get there early 2. Eat breakfast and pack a lunch 3. Bring something to keep you busy 4. Bring all the correct documents so you don't have to waste another day.
