How do you renew a driver’s license in New York state?

Does New York state have any online driver’s license renewal options? I work nights so renewing online would be a lot easier for me.

Absolutely! You can renew your license online in
New York
 state by visiting the New York DMV portal and selecting Renew License Online. If any of the following apply, however, then you’ll need to renew in person instead:
  • You don’t have an Enhanced or Real ID yet
  • You have a commercial license
  • You need a vision test and cannot obtain one from an approved provider outside of the DMV
  • You need to change personal information on your license, such as your name or address.
  • Your license has expired for over two years
While you’re learning how to renew your license, why not learn how to save money on your
car insurance
, too? Check out the
Jerr​​y
 app, where you can see a list of policy quotes that work for you in minutes. The average user saves over $800 per year.

Will Metromile file my SR-22?
Money has been a little tight lately, and I let my car insurance policy lapse since I don’t drive a lot. Unfortunately, I got caught driving uninsured—and now I need to get insurance and an SR-22. I think Metromile might be a good choice, but will they file an SR-22?
