Starting July 1, 2023, eligible residents in Massachusetts can obtain a Standard (Class D or M) driver’s license, regardless of immigration status, under the Work and Family Mobility Act.

The Work and Family Mobility Act removes the requirement that customers provide proof of lawful presence for a Standard Driver’s license.

The RMV is committed to providing quality services to all customers. We are working hard to develop informational resources, translation services, and guidance to help all Massachusetts residents access driver’s licenses.

To obtain a license, the RMV will require all applicants to prove their identity, date of birth, and Massachusetts residency. To see the expanded list of documents the RMV will accept, scroll down. Drivers will also be required to pass a learner’s permit exam, vision screening, and a road test.

Please use the information below to successfully get your license. Read more…
