The Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) Commissioner announced that the Stamford Photo License Center will temporarily close for two weeks starting Thursday, Sept. 3.
The staff from this center will be moved to other branch locations to help process applications and other transactions to make the lines move faster during the transition of the new computer system. If after two weeks the Commissioner feels more time is needed, people will be notified.
For those who need to get a license at the Stamford office, they can go to the triple AAA office located at 1101 High Ridge Road in Stamford. As for registration renewals, they can be done on-line.
The DMV wants to remind everyone of the following:
There is no need to rush to a DMV office. Deadlines are extended. For any vehicle registration, driver’s license, or ID card that expires on or after Aug. 11, renewals can be done without a late fee until Oct. 10. Expirations have also been extended until that date. Law enforcement has been informed of this update. Emissions test due dates have not been extended, and all compliance issues remain unaffected by the extension. Any registered vehicle has to be insured, including one operating under a registration that has been extended.
