CDL Application Procedures for Testing

CDL Application Procedures for Testing 1. Any individual that comes into a driver license station applying for a CDL permit or commercial license MUST have a valid Mississippi license. If they do not have a valid Mississippi license, they are NOT eligible to apply. 2. Before any tests are administered, first check the applicant on the computer to verify the person’s status in-state and out-of-state (SI). 3. After determining that the person is clear, then you may begin the application procedure. The applicant must pay the $25.00 application fee before tests are given. Once they have taken all the required tests, then you are to collect the $12.00 permit fee and $5.00 for each endorsement that they choose (See section 10-1C for HAZ/MAT endorsement). 4. After the applicant has passed all required tests and they are issued a CDL Permit, they are to be placed on the national CDLIS. 5. All scores and all receipt numbers are to be written on the application in the appropriate places. All applicants that test are to be entered into the computer. 6. The applicant is responsible for the application. If for some reason, they lose or misplace it, then they will have to pay the $25.00 application fee again before another application is completed for that applicant (even if they have the original receipt showing it had already been paid). 7. Upon presenting the application for completion to the CDL station of his/her choice, you should first check the computer with the application. If the applicant has completed all requirements, you should update the computer and enter all other information required to issue the license and collect the $40.00 commercial license fee and any other applicable fees. After the license has been issued, attach all documents relating to the applicant to the application (surrendered license, DE-26, DE-16A, CDL certification, etc).
