Florida CDL Permit Questions

Assuming you have the gold star on your DL. That proves residency. But otherwise Bank and auto insurance would work.

 

Just so you know. I initially was living in Florida when I first got my CDL learner's permit. But, right afterward I ended up moving to Arizona. My Florida CDL learner's permit wouldn't transfer, I had to retake the tests. It wasn't a problem, and my med card from a Florida clinic was still good, so didn't need to retake my physical.

I am unaware of any online testing available through any DMV ( or in AZ it's the MVD). Kinda doesn't seem likely to me. Seems to me it would be too hard to verify it was you taking the test that way. Never heard of a DMV test proctored either.
Hope you figure out a workable solution for you!

 

I'm in Florida and just got my permit for school. Even though I had a recent Class E license and picture they wanted a new picture and eye test for the CDL permit. You're probably going to have to come back to Florida for in person

 

My class E license was already proof so no.

 

Do you have family or close friends in FL that would be willing to write a letter stating that you live with them therefore have no rent or utilities in your name?.

That's what I had to do when I moved back to FL after years away. My old FL driver's license wasn't proof of residency.

 

If your Florida license has your Florida mailbox address as your address you are golden. Just be sure to keep the dues for the mailbox paid up. You will likely have to go there to do any business regarding your license, with the exception of updating your Medical card.

On the positive it's nice down there this time of year, so there's that.
