Hi Everyone,

I went to the DMV office yesterday to apply for a driving license and I have been told that I can only apply for a learner's permit which will only allow me to drive with someone who's 21 years or older.
I found that a little odd since I obtained my driving license in my home country in 2010 and it is valid until 2020. (I was also told something totally different at another DMV office, that I could drive using the license from my home country for up to 6 months)
I would love to hear about your experience obtaining a driving license in Pennsylvania, since the laws aren't clear and the staff at the DMV doesn't seem very knowledgeable
Thanks

I'm not from Pennsylvania but I could tell you that you can not transfer your license from Morocco to a USA license . You drive with t for up to 6months but that's it . You will have to apply for the learners permit and then after that take a road test to get a license .

There are no transfers of licenses from other countries. You will need to take the exam for a new licrnse.

and in the US sometimes when you transfer from state to state you have to start with learner's permit after passing the written test and take a new driving test

each state is different

most states in the US would have allowed you to drive on the Morocco licence for a month up to a year but you would have had to apply still for the licence in your state

this is no big deal

what till you start applying for jobs needing all your info / for instance in the US former military personal have to keep all their records and pass them to spouse after death for benefits

a lot of paperwork but this is the US
