I am A-MAZED that it only took me about 4 minutes to renew my drivers license. As many do, I…read moreabsolutely DREAD this task and put it off until the very last minute. That all changed with my latest trip to the new DPS MEGA drivers license center! Not only was I able to hold my place in from a computer (just a few clicks and I was virtually waiting), but after I registered I immediately got a text saying my wait time was only about 5 minutes...not even enough time to drive to the physical location! With a simple text reply I was able to put myself back in queue via my phone. Once at the office, the process was smooth from beginning to end. A greeter showed me how to watch/listen for my number being called (last 4 of my cell number) and he also was helpful in finding the correct station once it was my turn. That may sound silly, but there are at least 50 manned stations working at once so I actually needed help finding #9. The representative was pleasant, worked quickly, and had me out of there in no-time. Weird to say, but this was actually an enjoyable experience! The one downfall is that you can't hold your place in line using their website on a smart phone - I had to initially register from my computer at home. After that, all is done through text until you get to the center. WAY TO GO STATE OF TEXAS & DPS!

I tried mapping the tax office, but it kept giving me the south address and i needed the north. I was frustrated already. But this place popped up, and i thought I'd give it a try. Easy to find, right off the street, lots of parking, I walked in and it was empty. A very nice woman greeted me and sat me down. We went all over my paperwork ( i pre-filled out before coming in) i gave her all my information and i kid you not, 20 minutes later, i had my plates, sticker and registration papers in my hand. (it took longer because we spoke a bit) I asked her if the license office was close by, and she highlighted a paper for me with the address that was 17 minutes away (the address i had was 45 minutes away!!) I paid what i needed too (3% extra for using a card) and i was on my way. It was SO simple, fast and easy. She said she was glad i chose to come here, because the tax office i originally was going to did not help out filling out paperwork and took a very long time. I'm glad i went here, I recommend it. I'm now a Texan! woo!

# I Brought My Entire Life to the DPS. They Needed Two Things. 10/10…read more - NOTE CROSS POSTED ON GOOGLE a I have not lost my driver's license in 25 years. Last week? Happened. We're not talking about it. We're moving forward. I'm currently laid off and job hunting, so a valid ID is not optional. Because I didn't have my audit number, I couldn't renew online -- I had to go in person. To the DPS. Voluntarily. Now, I'm a policy nerd. Terms and conditions are my bedtime reading. So you'd THINK decoding exactly what documents I needed would be easy. It was not. By the time I was done, I walked into that office with: my birth certificate, Social Security card AND the receipt for requesting it, my lease, my high school diploma, college transcripts, degree, graduation photos, and my college ID. **I am 45 years old. I brought my academic career as a character witness for my own existence.** Here's the thing though -- the staff at South General McMullen did not need any of that energy from me because THEY had it handled. The office was organized, efficient, and genuinely warm. People were greeted at the door, directed immediately, and when someone got frustrated about a missing document, staff stepped in calmly and gave them a real next step. No chaos. No attitude. Just competence with a smile. I waited about an hour and 20 minutes for my number. Once called? Window in 5 minutes, done in another 5. They also accept Apple Pay (saved my life -- lost my wallet too, it was a week), there are outlets near the entrance for charging your phone, and if you opt in for text reminders you can check in 30 minutes early from your phone. Also: they may already have your documents on file from your Real ID. Ask before you panic. You might not need the graduation photos. The DPS is one of the few places in America where every age, background, and tax bracket ends up in the same room. It's actually a beautiful little snapshot of community -- and this staff keeps it running beautifully. Huge thank you to everyone at this location. Y'all are awesome, efficient, and lowkey hilarious. The banter alone made the wait worth it. *-- A woman who showed up with her transcripts and left with a glow-up ID photo. No notes.*

I was able to easily schedule online back in March but the wait was a month long. Hopefully it's gotten better since then. When you arrive, you will submit to a screening (sanitize your hands, temperature taken & the guard asks a few simple questions like whether you have any symptoms or were exposed to someone with Covid recently).
