Change your address on your driver's license or ID card
You must update your address in person by applying for a duplicate or renewing your card. Update the address on your card within 60 days of your move or within 30 days if you are a commercial driver.
If your name changed with your address, make sure you have all documents for your name change.
P.O. Boxes are not allowed as a residence address.
