If you are under the age of 21 and cannot
provide verification of a
Missouri residential address, a parent or legal guardian may provide
such a document on your behalf.
• Resident address is the location at which a person has been
physically present, and that the person regards as home. A residential
address is a person’s true, fixed, principal, and permanent home, to
which a person intends to return and remain, even though currently
residing elsewhere.
• Social Security Number
State law requires you to include your Social Security Number (SSN) on
your application to obtain a Missouri License or permit. The SSN may
be provided verbally or by presenting the Social Security Card. If the
number or name associated with the social
security number cannot be
verified, the license office employee may ask to see the Social
Security Card or a statement from the Social Security Administration
as proof of the name and SSN in their records.
If you do not have a social security number:
• You must sign a notarized affidavit stating that you have not
been issued a social security number. At the time of application,
the affidavit will be provided by the license office.
• You must present a letter from the Social Security Administration
(SSA) regarding the status of your social security number.
NOTE: If you are a nonimmigrant foreign student, who is not
authorized to work in the United States, submission of a status
letter from the SSA is not required. (You or your dependents
immigration document MUST reflect an F or a J classification).
• License or permit applications without a social
security number may be
reviewed by the central office for final approval prior to printing and
mailing.
• Name Changes
If the name on your required documents does not match your current
name, present one of the documents below showing your correct or
current name.
•
Last Name Change - certified marriage certificate, certified divorce
decree, certified court order, certified adoption papers, or amended
birth certificate, U.S. passport, or social security card or medicare
card.
•
First Name Change - court order or adoption papers
•
Middle Name Change - court order.
TIP! Make sure you have all the necessary documents with you before you
go to your license office. It will save you time and the time of your fellow
customers!

RESTRICTIONS
If you have limited driving experience or a medical condition that impairs your
ability to drive safely, you may receive a restricted license permitting you to
drive only under specific conditions. If you have a restricted license, it will
have one or more of the restriction codes shown below. You may be required
to take a driving test in order to have a restriction removed from your license.
If you disobey the restriction(s), you can be charged with driving without a
license, and if convicted, points will be placed on your driving record. If you
receive too many points (see Chapter 11), your license may be suspended
or revoked.

*An uncoded restriction is any restriction not listed here. An uncoded
restriction will be listed as a “U” in the restriction area of the driver license
or permit and the description will display on the back of the document,
space permitting. Any law enforcement officer, judge,
or physician can ask
the Department of Revenue to place restrictions on your license.
Medical Referral
There are two reasons you may need a physician’s statement when you
renew or apply for a license:
• You have had epileptic seizures, convulsions, or blackouts within the 6
months prior to your application for a license.
• A driver examiner, license clerk, family member, law enforcement
officer, physician, physical therapist,
occupational therapist, chiropractor,
registered nurse, psychologist, social worker, professional counselor,
optometrist, or emergency medical technician, believes you may have
some other medical condition that would make you an unsafe driver.
This person must complete a Driver Condition Report (
Form 4319) and
submit it to the Department of Revenue.
ENDORSEMENTS
Endorsements are just the opposite of restrictions because they qualify you
to do things you couldn’t do without the endorsement, such as drive a school
bus or operate a motorcycle. The endorsements available for your non-
commercial (class F, E, or M) Missouri driver license are listed below.
