WHATS AN AUDIT NUMBER ON DRIVERS LICENSE DRIVER
What is the meaning of the Audit Number (vertical number) on a Texas Driver License? I know it is supposed to make fake licenses difficult if not impossible to produce, but what do the actual digits represent? I know the first two digits. 2) They will give you a paper document right away that will suffice in case you get stopped by a cop. Then it will take about 15 minutes once you are in the door. 1) Go at 7:30 am and be first in line when they open. Maybe I’m throwing caution to the wind, but I’m not worried about ID theft in this specific situation because I know the general area where I lost the ID and no one I mistrust will find it. Oppositely, to just request a driver’s license address, you simply log on to their website, pay the $10, and they mail it to you with no excessive ID theft checks. Plus, after my number is called, I have to wait 2 weeks to receive the driver’s license by mail.Īpparently with a lost license, they have to verify that you are who you say you are and run through the bureaucracy of that before they can send it to you. I really just can’t afford the time to sit in a DPS office waiting for my number to be called (they are open 8 AM – 5 PM M-F when I’m specifically at work just like other Americans with the standard working schedule). & I have a passport and my social security card, so I’m not quite as worried about ID at the moment. We have copies of our Driver’s License, Social Security Card, Birth Certificate, Sign on information for various computer access sites, and anything we might later have to refer to. This is a good time to point out that everyone should either scan or otherwise copy your important papers into your computer and keep a hard copy in your files. You should probably report it as soon as possible, to avoid identity theft.
I’m not sure what a DPS audit number is, but it seems to me the first thing you should do is call the local office and ask them.
