You may also need a Social Security card, so make sure your parents or guardians have that. The driver’s-license office, or your driver’s-ed instructor, can tell you what else you’ll need, so talk with them and take care of things as soon as possible. Some paperwork and documents take a while to get to you if you need replacements, so don’t wait until the last-possible minute. Otherwise, you may have to reschedule your exam.
