The San Ysidro DMV field office looks relatively new! This state-of-the-art facility has a…read moreself-serve kiosk to avoid waiting in line. DMV kiosks are convenient and offer services that are quick and easy. No wait times and open daily! I scheduled an appointment for my daughter to take her behind-the-wheel test at 9 AM. We arrived early at 8:45 AM and were directed to window 8 for early check-in. They checked us in and furthermore instructed us to bring our vehicle around for inspection before heading out to take the driver test. I'm not even exaggerating when I say, we waited an additional 50 MINUTES outside in our vehicle, in the hot blazing sun (no shade) before my daughter was able to take her driver test. I was very disappointed in the lack of organization and communication. At times, it seemed both instructors seemed dazed and confused about who was next in line. Mind you, there were (3) separate vehicle lanes and many people were not made aware of which lane they were designated. In the end, my daughter passed her driving test and is now a licensed driver in the state of California. We are super stoked and very proud of her! I will definitely reconsider coming back to this DMV in the future!

Absolute disgrace.

WAITED OVER AN HOUR. What's the point of "Express" then? 3) I have a screenshot of our online process that says they take electronic copies of proof of residency, printed is not required but is suggested. Finally get called to the windows and the worker says we are REQUIRED to have printed copies. I show her my screenshot and she says, "I need to scan it." I asked her what was the point of submitting the documentation online then? She had no answer, just stared at me. I explained AGAIN and said the DMV website states that proof of residency will be accepted in electronic form, printed ISNT required but is suggested. She stared at us again, long pause, "I need to have the physical paper to scan." I asked again, why don't they have it already if I had to pre-submit it and it was approved. Again, no answer and long stare. 4)I stared back, waiting for direction, and nothing. I asked what we do next and she said "I don't know, I need the paper." I asked if there was anywhere nearby I could print out copies and she says "I don't know." Then I asked what we do when we have them printed and she said, "Get in line agan." Clearly, NOT HELPFUL and had no intention of being helpful, she just started chatting with her coworker nearby about nothing related, NOT A QUALITY EMPLOYEE. *the ONLY good thing I have to report is that the facility was very clean and organized well.
