Well, here they don't even give your old card back at all to you.I wonder what they, do with them. My ID needs renewing in a month from now.Lucky. I just took it out to see my expiration date, I knew it was approaching that time frame.  Barbara

They take your info, then take your picture then after a minute or two, your new ID is ready and you take it with you.  They also punch a whole in your old ID at the corner.  Can't think why they do that.

You have 30 days to renew, by going to the DVS, getting your picture taken, the old ID is clipped on one corner. The new ID arrives in the mail, about a week or so later.
