Title pretty much says it all. I just got accepted for a new job at a new employer and they’re going to be running a check on my driving record. However my liscense is expiring shortly so I want to get it renewed. Ideally I want to get it renewed before I actually start the new job because once I start I will be working durring DMV hours. But I don’t want to delay things with my new employer or iritate them by messing up the MVR check.
So can I safely get my drivers liscense renewed now or should I wait until after I start at the new job and the MVR check is done?
It doesn’t actually expire until March. I start the new job at the start of February. So I’ll still have a bit over a month to get it done even after I get the new job and they run my records. It would just be more of a pain because the DMV is only open durring my new working hours. It’s still doable though because I could always just swing in on my lunch break.
Honestly I’m probably worrying about this way more than I should. If I wait to get it renewed then I just swing by the DMV some day on my lunch break. If I renew it now it would probably be fine and even if it did screw something up it would probably take a single email to HR to resolve it.
I can’t imagine how renewing your license will affect anything on their end. Your driving record and license number will remain the same.
