California DMV Reviews and Tips
Staff was helpful and polite. Wait with apportionment was about 35 min. I found location with GPS and was easy to find. Parking was little crowded, but I found available space. Social distancing was followed at the location and masks were mandatory. Overall positive experience.

I wrote a check for $467 on March 3 for License #*******. It is now March 20 and the check has not been cashed and no renewal stickers have been sent.
Do you have my money? I need to know if I have to send you a replacement check or not. I cannot afford to pay you twice. I have no way to reach you by automated system. Does DMV have a telephone?
