I lost my West Virginia driver’s license this week, and I don’t have any tickets or anything. Can I replace it online or do I have to go in person? Anyone know?
Hey, sorry to hear about your license! Unfortunately, you can’t replace it online since they’ll need your photo. You’ll have to go to the DMV in person.

Ugh, that’s annoying. I was hoping to just do it online, but guess I’ll have to head to the DMV. Thanks for the info!
I had to go in person too when I lost mine. The DMV needed to take a new photo and confirm my identity. It’s not as bad as it sounds though.

Good to know! Hopefully the process won’t take too long. Thanks!
Did you have a photocopy of your license or anything with your number on it? That might speed up the process when you go to the DMV.

I actually don’t, but I guess I’ll figure it out when I get there. Thanks for the heads up!
Just to add, if you’re in a hurry, some DMVs let you make an appointment. Might be worth checking to avoid long wait times!

That’s a great idea. I’ll see if I can make an appointment. Thanks!
I had the same issue, and I remember they asked if I had any upcoming appointments or reasons for needing it quick. Maybe you could try explaining that when you go.

I’ll keep that in mind! Hopefully, they’ll be understanding. Appreciate the tip!
