I can't renew my driver's license online anymore until I prove my citizenship.

Alright, fine, I have my birth certificate, and I took it to the DPS.

Well I can't just walk in... I have to make an appointment online. Alright, fine...

But appointments are booked solid for 2 months.

So I guess I'm driving with an expired license until then.

I brought in multiple documents to prove my identity because I heard a lot of stories of people getting turned down for not having any documents. I also saw it first-hand while waiting at the DMV to renew. I finally get to the front counter. The lady working there eyed my folder of docs, then snarkily said "you know, less is more". I hate the DMV.

Tried to get it when changing my address after moving in IL.

Documents weren't perfect. Also you have to let the address settle after moving and getting a new id. (I.e. utility bills that aren't printed out with your address on them)

Short end of the story, I could have done an address change online quicker. Also, use my GE card as my fed id now. (Real Id)

If I were you I would print out a copy of my appointment and keep it with my registration.
