Are you wondering if you are required to notify DMV of your entry into the military?
No, my superiors have informed me about that.
Unfortunately, no relevant information is found.
If I do have questions that your website doesn't answer, who can I talk to?
If you have additional questions, please contact the DMV Call Center.
Alright, will do. And what if my NY driving license expires during my military service?
NY State law automatically extends license privileges throughout active military service for up to 6 months after discharge or separation. Discharged or separated military personnel may renew an expired NY State license up to two years after the extended expiration. No more than 30 months may have passed since discharge 6-month extension plus 24-month grace period.
Understood. Well, I have just returned from a mission in Iraq. Do I have to worry about my license being expired?
Of course not. Pursuant to Executive Order No. 2 by Governor Andrew M. Cuomo, all licenses and registrations for New York State military personnel returning from active military duty relating to the war on terrorism and military action in Iraq will automatically be extended.
Did I have to notify DMV of joining the military?
