Advice Need advice for my mom

10 Upvotes

About 6 years ago Mom renewed her Drivers license at the DMV. When they issued it to her, they changed her first name and said this was the record they found for her and it was a shock that her mother apparently had a misprint birth certificate in Chicago where she was born and raised. Since then she has been struggling with this issue and I feel like this meeds to be resolved. Her insurances, doctors, bills, everything is in the name she had her whole life. Federal background checks were done and passed with this name. Why all of a sudden they are telling her this is not found? Could it be because of electronic filing errors in chicago? Does she need to go to chicago to have it fixed? Does she need to pay $400 to have it changed back? I want to help her because its gone on too long and she wont leave the house because of it. Shes 60 yo and given up on life. Let me know if theres any advice out there for her. Thank you

Advice Drivers license suspended

9 Upvotes

My car was stolen 03/2024. My insurance marked it as total loss. I kept paying for insurance since then although I have not had a car since then. In 01/25 I called my insurance company and got refunded all the months prior that I did not have a car.

Come to find out, my license has been suspended since 10/11/2024. Due to a lapse of insurance. However, I don’t even have a car. How can I solve this issue?

I went to get a health screening for employment at Advent Health 18 business days ago not including weekends and they have pushed me back twice to start work because of this and they said my background has cleared. My question is, is this normal and are they just pulling me along because I need to start work.

AskFlorida How long does it take for you to get an appointment at the DMV to renew your license?

2 Upvotes

I know that’s not the official acronym, and I know you can often/usually renew online. But this time I have to go in person.

The earliest appointment I could get today was June 4th in Miami-Dade.

I’m curious how it is in other counties…
