Whether you are a U.S. immigrant or an international student, one of the first things many people do after arriving in the United States is buy a car or get a driver's license. During your time living in the U.S., how do you renew your license if it expires? In this issue of the "Immigration Guide" column, Worldway Group will use California as an example to explain the process and relevant precautions for renewing a driver's license in the United States.

In California, you must renew your driver's license in person at the DMV. The procedure is as follows:
1. Obtain a Driver License Application form (DL 44 or DL 44C) at the DMV counter and fill it out.
2. Visit the cbp.gov/I94 website to fill in the relevant information and click the "Submit" button online.
3. Print the information displayed on the screen after submission. It is recommended that readers complete this step at home; if this step is forgotten, the DMV will not accept the driver's license renewal application.
4. Wait for your number to be called for processing. The clerk will ask you to queue at another designated counter to retake your photo.
5. Before making payment, you will need to take a vision test.
6. Pay with a debit card or cash. The fee for renewing a driver's license is $33. The DMV does not accept credit card payments.
7. The clerk will issue you a "temporary driver's license" valid for 3 months. You must carry this temporary license with you when driving until you receive your official driver's license.
