I had posted a renewal question several days ago the Texas Investigator so kindly replied but since I posted in the wrong place thought I would update here. Original question was did I qualify for a online renewal without taking the class since it was my 3rd renewal. TI suggested I call DPS.....which I did and talked to a wonderful lady that took the time to walk me through what to expect once I entered the on line site. Most helpful was to be sure and use my senior citizen status instead on Veteran because price is the same and senior requires no paperwork to verify veterans status. even told me to make sure my printer had paper, ink etc because at the conclusion you are required to print Bar Code that must be mailed in to DPS along with a checklist of what must be mailed. In my case only the Barcode sheet was required and the DPS lady reminded me to hand Print "EXEMPT" next to the box requiring CDL-100 Training Form. The complete process was very easy!! I will mail in the paperwork tomorrow (1-18-2011) and will report back on this thread when I actually get my new card in the mail.
