Online test? Know the 3-day rule

Under-18s can take the test online, but the permit is issued at an office, and arriving within three business days of passing forces a full in-office retest.

How the online permit test works

A reliable permit-test plan

01
Study and practice
Read the manual by topic, then use official quizzes to find gaps rather than memorising answer patterns.
02
Build the document set
Match every proof to the permit type and name you will use on the application.
03
Check this office, then go
Confirm the hours and appointment policy published on this page, then complete the visit: document review, photo, vision screening, and permit issuance.

A passed online test is not the finished permit.

NYS DMV reviews online results and documents before issuance, and it can require an in-office retest. Keep studying until the office process is complete.
