Hi there,

just had a quick question. now that I have everything to go get my driver's license, I would like to know something real quick.

Did all of you have to do all 3 tests (vision, theory and practical) or did they wave one or the other for you since you have been driving for a while?

Especially Oklahoma would be interesting for me.

Thanks a lot

Had to do all three in Georgia.

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?”

In VA I also had to take all three tests but, having said that, it really wasn't anything to worry about - had to be the easiest driving test ever!

Our journey started in 2001 and it's still not over. It's been a rollercoaster ride all the way! Let me off - I wanna be sick!

I'm in VA and was a simple exchange of licenses,no tests at all. As previously stated each state differs. DMV.ORG

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1
