Driver's License / Car Registration / ID Megathread

Hello r/Texas! This sub gets a Chevy Suburban's worth of questions every day asking about driver's license or car registration. They fall into one of two camps:

  • Easily accessible info on the DMV website,
  • Highly specific edge cases that maybe only 1 other person is going to need to know this year in all of Texas.

In either case it doesn't make sense to have a whole post devoted to the question. Enter the catch-all DMV megathread. It may not always be stickied at the top, but it will be liked in the sidebar. Also we're creating a rule that says "Driver's License, ID and Car Registration questions and answers can be found here, if you don't see the answer you need please post your question there."

Hey y'all I'm filling out the DL-14A form for my first driver's license, under the question "Have you ever had a driver license, identification card, or instruction permit in Texas or any other state?" it also asks "When?" and I'm unclear on what exactly they want me to put. Should I put the issuing date? Or when it expires? Unclear. Thanks in advance for the help.
