I have a Nebraska Driver’s License and I now need Kansas one since I am now a firefighter here in KS, do I need an appointment to get this taken care of?

A) Yes, it is recommended that you make an appointment to get a Kansas driver’s license if you are a new resident or if you are exchanging an out-of-state license. This is because the Kansas Department of Revenue (KDOR) is currently experiencing high demand for driver’s license services, and walk-in wait times can be long. You can make an appointment online at the KDOR website.

Here are the steps on how to make an appointment for a Kansas driver’s license:

1. Go to the KDOR website: https://www.ksrevenue.gov/
2. Click on the “Driver’s License” tab.
3. Click on the “Schedule an Appointment” button.
4. Select your county and the office you want to visit.
5. Choose a date and time that works for you.
6. Click on the “Schedule Appointment” button.

You will need to bring the following documents with you to your appointment:

• Your current driver’s license or other valid identification.
• Proof of residency in Kansas. This can be a utility bill, lease agreement, or other document that shows your name and address.
• Proof of identity. This can be a birth certificate, passport, or other document that shows your date of birth and legal name.
• Proof of social security number. This can be your social security card or a letter from the Social Security Administration.

If you are applying for a commercial driver’s license, you will need to bring additional documents, such as a medical certificate and a copy of your CDL training completion certificate.

The cost of a Kansas driver’s license is $30 for a standard license and $40 for a REAL ID-compliant license. You can pay with cash, check, money order, or credit card.
