Florida: ITIN Driver's License Guide

Requirements

  • Proof of lawful presence in the United States (ITIN alone is not sufficient)
  • Social Security Number
  • Proof of Florida residential address
  • Proof of identity and date of birth

Required Documents

  • Valid passport with US visa, I-94, EAD, or I-797 approval notice
  • Social Security card
  • Two proofs of Florida residential address (utility bill, bank statement, lease)
  • I-20 or DS-2019 for F-1/J-1 visa holders

Steps

  1. 1 Verify your immigration status qualifies for a Florida license
  2. 2 Gather all required documents
  3. 3 Visit a Florida DHSMV (Department of Highway Safety) office
  4. 4 Complete the driver license application
  5. 5 Pass the written knowledge test (50 questions, need 40 correct)
  6. 6 Pass the vision and hearing tests
  7. 7 Pay the $48 application fee
  8. 8 Schedule and pass the road skills test

Important Notes

  • Florida requires proof of lawful presence and a valid SSN — an ITIN does not substitute for SSN
  • DACA recipients with a valid EAD and SSN may apply for a temporary license
  • Non-citizen licenses are marked "TEMPORARY" and expire with immigration status
