If you choose to go to\u00a0a\u00a0different DMV field office than you originally chose, you will not retain the DMV Express Experience\u00a0and it is recommended that you visit our website\u00a0at\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.dmv.ca.gov\/portal\/es\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dmv.ca.gov\/portal\/es\/\">dmv.ca.gov<\/a><\/a>\u00a0for\u00a0additional instructions.<\/li><li><strong>Q.

The original documents that were successfully uploaded for the REAL ID\u00a0application\u00a0are required\u00a0at the time of your visit to complete the REAL ID\u00a0application process.<\/li><li><strong>Q.

Participating in the DMV Express Experience is not required, so you do not have to wait for verification. \u00a0However, completing the DMV Express Experience process will ensure you have the right documents\u00a0at the time you visit\u00a0a\u00a0DMV field office,\u00a0and your visit will be shorter.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Q.
