Why can't I schedule the Subject 4 exam after transferring to another location?

Subject 4 cannot be scheduled in another location because the scheduling sequence for Subject 4 is arranged according to the test time of Subject 3. If the transfer for the exam is processed late or the Subject 3 test time is delayed, then the scheduling sequence will be pushed back. Scheduling requirements: According to the scheduling rules for Subject 1, first-time applicants for small cars, small automatic transmission cars, low-speed trucks, three-wheeled cars, or small automatic transmission passenger cars for the disabled must wait at least 10 days after obtaining the learning driving permit before scheduling. For applicants upgrading to large buses, tractors, city buses, medium-sized buses, or large trucks, they must wait at least 20 days after obtaining the learning driving permit before scheduling the exam. Scheduling time: The staff at the driving test centers are official police officers and generally follow national legal holidays, so the driving test centers are usually closed on weekends. If no one is working, naturally, the Subject 1 exam cannot be conducted.

I've encountered this situation before. The main reason for being stuck when trying to schedule the subject four exam after transferring to another location is usually because the file transfer hasn't been completed yet. The driver's license examination system isn't nationally networked. After transferring regions, your test scores and qualification data from the original test location need manual review and import into the new system, which can sometimes take about a week. If the system doesn't detect your complete qualification records, the scheduling button won't work. Another possibility is that the new region's exam slots are fully booked, with priority given to local students. My suggestion is to wait patiently and refresh your status on the local DMV app. If you're in a hurry, you can go directly to the DMV counter to request expedited processing. Remember, don't operate too frequently as the system might misinterpret your actions.

I recently helped a friend with this issue and found that failed out-of-town appointments are often caused by delayed file synchronization. The data transfer between driving test centers relies on backend processing, and qualification information may not be updated within a few days after transferring regions. Other reasons include unresolved items from previous subjects—the system may lock the appointment function if issues are detected during verification. The solution is to call the driving school or bring your ID card to the local test center to check the progress. Most of the time, waiting two or three days will resolve it. Avoid randomly clicking the appointment button to prevent being mistakenly flagged as spamming. Stay calm—you’ll eventually pass the test.

Unable to schedule Subject 4 after transferring to another location, the core issue lies in system connectivity problems. For example, the receiving and transferring driving test centers may not have completed coordinating the file transfer, leading to blocked appointments due to incomplete qualification verification. Additionally, the new region might have quota limitations or significant policy differences. The solution is straightforward: check records online, and if that doesn't work, contact the staff to resolve it. Usually, waiting patiently for a few days until the status updates automatically will do the trick. No need to worry, it's a minor issue.
