I just have to share

[Fred78]

This by golly has been a blue ribbon day . My son just returned to In. to live, in the process of course a new drivers lic. and plates are required. So off to the lic. bureau he goes with all his required paper work Yuk Yuk. It turns out that his ORIGINAL birth certificate not a copy is suddenly called a sovenier certificate. and he must get a copy of the document he had in his hand from a court house 80 miles away by golly that makes sense to me. Now then what I would like to know is how in the world are all these illegals driving around when my son who was born in In. and has a valid original birth certificate can't get a license. Has this country gone nuts? I think so.

I think the BMV just makes it up as they go. It doesn't matter how much documentation you take in there, they'll always tell you you need something else. It's just a scam like every other gov agency, inconvenience you as much as possible and separate you from as much of your money as possible.

They drive without a valid license.

I've actually never had a problem doing anything regarding the BMV. Maybe I'm just lucky but everything's always gone smooth for me.

Yes, in many respects it has gone nuts. It's just that every now and then, we get tangled up in the web.

Sounds like getting anything done administratively in the Army. They say this i isn't dotted or that t isn't crossed to get out of doing the work right now. They don't realize that the work will still have to be done and it'd be less work for all involved if they just did their damned job.

I'm guessing he had the hospital issued birth certificate and that is not considered the real deal. We had to get certified copies from the health department in the county where my kids were born to use for school, driver's licenses, etc. I agree with the others though...no matter what you take with you to the BMV, there is always something that is missing or not right.

Usually what is missing is common sense from the workers. I was sitting in a DMV getting registration stuff done when someone hit my truck. I was sitting at the desk and had to go outside to check the damage. Came back in and had to go right back to the end of the line even though the worker went outside with me. Many times it is a herp-a-derp session in there.

Typical government hiring process: hire the dumbest and laziest mother ****ers for the job.

Isn't this the truth!!

Pay burger-flipping wages, get burger-flippers.

They drive without a valid license.

Or get a valid license from one of these left-wing states like Commiefornia.

The only "illegals" I have found with valid licenses are those that have gone through the process to become citizens.

This one has to be a valid license because I saw it on the Internet!!!!

Took a title to the Winchester bmv and was told that because the seller had gone over one number in a date twice with a pen because it hadn't written the first time, it was encumbent upon me to HAVE THE SELLER FILL OUT AN AFFIDAVIT THAT WHEN HE WROTE OCT. 4, HE MEANT OCT. 4. Really? I acquired said affidavit, took the title into Muncie's license branch, which USED to be one of the worst around, and kept my affidavit in my pocket. The lady filled out a similar affidavit herself, and said "Sign this." And that was it.
That was about the the third time Winchester turned me away over something stupid, and as far as I'm concerned, it's three strikes and you're out. Not going back in there if I can help it.

I find this to be true in nearly all employment scenarios.

It would be nice if they'd go ahead and actually have some burgers there! But, they'd just **** that up too.

Thanks for all the support the lad has been through a lot in last few months and this was about the last straw when a legal document is suddenly usless wow. We both enjoyed the drivers lic. neat.

It used to be a lot easier in the past. Now, the BMV has to comply with stricter DHS rules requiring pre-certification of valid ID, prior to issuing a license.

After reading the other posts, the Kokomo License Branch must be one of the most efficient ones in the state. The workers there, are always friendly, courteous, and very knowledgeable about the administrative details.

Muncie bmv is much better than it used to be!!
