How Long After Passing Subject 4 Exam to Get the License?
3 Answers
You can typically receive your driver's license about one week after passing the Subject 4 exam. In some areas, it may be issued on the same day, but it should not take more than 15 days at the latest. There are several ways to obtain the license: 1. Issued on the spot after passing the exam; 2. Mailed to you; 3. Picked up at the driving school; 4. Collected at the vehicle management office. The driver's license, commonly referred to as a 'driver's permit,' is a legal document required for operating motor vehicles. Driving a motor vehicle requires certain skills, and those lacking these skills may cause traffic accidents if they drive recklessly. It is illegal to drive without a license. For those who have demonstrated safe driving skills, the document that permits them to drive on public roads is called a 'driver's license.'
I got my driver's license on the same day I passed the fourth subject test, I was so happy I almost jumped! As soon as the test results were uploaded to the DMV system, the staff immediately started printing the license. I waited about twenty minutes in the rest area before hearing my name called over the loudspeaker to collect it—my hands were shaking when I signed for it. Some places are even more efficient, issuing the license right on the spot after the test. But be careful, if you finish the test after 4 PM, you might have to pick it up the next day. You must bring your ID card in person to collect it, and don’t rush off—double-check that the name and vehicle class on the license are correct.
When I was taking the fourth subject test, I was extremely nervous. After finishing, I asked the proctor when I could get my license. She said most people get it the same day, but it depends on the DMV's document processing speed. Sure enough, after waiting in the hall for about an hour, I saw staff members carrying small blue booklets and calling out names. A reminder: don't rush off after the test—sometimes the system is slow, taking two or three days, especially during system upgrades. It's best to ask the staff at the test center directly; they handle hundreds of licenses every day.
