The quickest and easiest way to check your driving status is online through MyDMV. Sign up for or sign into MyDMV and use the "My License, Permit, or ID" service. You can check

• the current class and status of your driving privilege (for example valid, revoked, suspended)
• the number of driver violation points on your driving record by purchasing your driving record
• if your license, permit or non-driver ID card is valid, expired, or due to be renewed
• your document type (Enhanced, REAL ID, Standard)
• your address on DMV records, and change it, if necessary
• your CDL medical certification status
• the mailing status of a document you recently ordered

You can also renew or order a replacement document.

To access MyDMV, you must have a New York State-issued driver license, permit, or non-driver ID. It must be your most recently issued document. You will need the document number (see sample documents) from your most recently issued document. If you renewed or ordered yours recently and have not received it in the mail yet, you will need to wait for it to arrive before you can create a MyDMV account.

'My License' Service is Not an Official Record

The "My License" service is not an official (certified) copy of your driving record. If you need a certified copy of your driving record, you will need to get your own driving record (abstract).

If you do not have a New York State license, permit, or non-driver ID you can order a driving record abstract by mail or at a DMV office.
