Where's my driver license/ID?

​If you applied for a Wisconsin driver license or identification (ID) card, please allow 7-10 days to receive your card from the date that it was printed.

​If it has been over 10 days and you have not received your card​:

• ​Have you moved? Update your DMV record address online or learn more.
• Is the post office holding your mail? Stop your hold and ensure your mailbox has your name inside or outside the mailbox.
• If your card is undeliverable, the post office will return it to the DMV and kept on file with the DMV.

​Next steps

If it has been more than 10 days and you have not received your​​ driver license or ID, contact the Driver Eligibility Unit dre.dmv@dot.wi.gov.

• If you are 18 and older and have applied for your first Wisconsin Driver License or ID, please attach a proof of Wisconsin residency​ to your email.
