    i'm guessing the states want you in there system so they have the records. as you only need to provide the information once. but it's not transferable from state to state.

    seems like every stzte is doing a overhaul of the driver license division. be nice if they all worked together on SOME things.

    in utah. we get one free retest.

    and for the op. don't forget your birth certificate.

    I just hired a driver from Texas. When he went to California DMV he had to take all the tests. When he was done they gave him a print out saying his new haz-mat endorement was invalid. He did his fingerprinting and background in Texas. He contacted TSA and they resent his approval to California. He was good to go.

    take the test 6 times ! no offense but did you read the book ? most states only let you test once a day and some say a week in between so make sure you study the book before you take the test and then scan it before you go in. good luck

    aww, gee, man. i'm sorry my IQ and attention span isn't as high as yours. that happens to some people as we get older beucase we just don't give a crap to read crap that doesn't interest us in the least way.

    now give me a playboy and my interest my pick up.

    when you don't haul the stuff to begin with. and know absolutely nothing aobut it. we can't all be einsteins and remember the book in one reading.

    hmm, i wonder if i can save myself the 100 bucks or whatever it is and just call TSA and ask them if they can send my approval letter to Colorado, considering my last fingerprinting was 6 months or so ago

    Just save the receipt. Some employeers will reimburse the expense of HazMat prints.
