Will I receive an SMS after successfully scheduling the Subject 1 exam on the Traffic Management 12123 platform?

You will receive an SMS after successfully scheduling the Subject 1 exam on the Traffic Management 12123 platform. Generally, you will receive the SMS within a week after online scheduling. Priority is given to those who have canceled and rescheduled their appointments or whose driver's learning certificates are about to expire, while first-time applicants may experience a longer wait. The process for the Subject 1 exam is as follows: First, follow the instructions of the staff and collect your driver training file in order at the waiting area. Bring and present your ID card for verification by the supervising officer. Note that mobile phones must be turned off upon entering the exam area, loud noises are prohibited, and law textbooks are not allowed in the exam area (or should be placed in your bag). After the exam, keep your ID card safe and submit the file to the "Document Submission Window" at the front of the exam room. Candidates who pass the exam will sign under the guidance of the staff at the exit before leaving the exam room. Candidates who fail the exam may leave immediately and await notification from their driving school regarding the retake schedule.
As someone who just passed the subject one test, I paid special attention to this issue. After successfully booking an appointment on the 12123 traffic management platform, the system usually sends an SMS notification to the registered phone number. I remember booking in the morning and receiving the SMS in the afternoon, which included the exam time, test center address, and appointment serial number. However, some friends have experienced delays of up to half a day before receiving the message, possibly due to system queuing. My advice is not to rush to close the app after booking—check the status directly by clicking 'Exam Appointment' on the homepage. If it shows 'Appointment Successful,' you're good to go. If no SMS arrives after several days, the phone number might be incorrect or blocked by the carrier, so it's best to ask the driving school for help. My instructor mentioned that a confirmation SMS is definitely sent three days before each exam batch—if you don’t receive it, proactively contact the DMV.
