Required Before Class: Get Your Permit Started
Before your teen can begin driving lessons, they must have a Washington State instruction permit process started through the Department of Licensing.
Steps to Complete:
-
Go to dol.wa.gov and create or log in to a License eXpress account.
-
Select “Pre-apply for your first driver license or instruction permit.”
-
Complete the application and get your teen’s DLN/WDL number.
-
Email the DLN/WDL to info@completedrivingexp.com at least 10 days before class starts.
-
After CDX submits the permit waiver, you’ll receive confirmation and can complete the permit process through the DOL.
Important:
A DLN is not required to enroll, but it is required before the permit waiver can be submitted. Students must be 15 years old for CDX to submit the waiver. Late DLN submission may delay permit eligibility.
