Question Regarding LTCH

[Plinkuh]

Hello all. I'm currently thinking about picking up my LTCH. My question though is this; I moved and the address on my license is my old address. Do I need to update my license before I apply for my LTCH?

Thanks to all in advance...

If you live in Johnson County...I had to have my license address updated.

Seeing as how technically you could be ticketed for having the wrong address if pulled over, I would hate to go in for prints under the same premise.

If your permanent address changes while you have an Indiana license, permit, or identification card you must notify the BMV of the change of address and apply for an amended license, permit, or identification card within 30 days of the address change.

Short answer: Absolutely.

I'm sorry, that's still too long. Can you shorten it any more?

As others said, yes you do need to update your address on your license.

I had this issue when I applied for my LTCH earlier this year, I had recently moved from Carmel to Fishers and did not have an updated drivers license with my new address. My experience went like this. At 9:00am I went to the DMV and changed my address for my Indiana drivers license. The DMV no longer gives you a new license, they mail the new one to your address about 10 days after you stop in the DMV. If you ask they will give you a paper printout that shows your new address and it had some wording on it that said it was a valid Indiana identification when presented with current license. After leaving the DMV I went to work and went online and applied for my Lifetime LTCH at around 10:00am. I scheduled electronic fingerprinting through L1 for 12:30 I think. After I got my fingerprints done I went to the Fishers PD. I was back at work by 1:30 or so. About 2 weeks later I got my LTCH in the mail.

I offered to show my paper from the DMV showing my updated address to both L1 and the Fishers PD; they both took a quick glance at it and said it was ok.

This was my experience, rather painless. Your experience may be different if you get someone at L1 or the PD who wants to give you a hard time because of the paper license.

My brother's experience was very similar to defender14's. He changed his address but didn't have the new license yet, just the paper. He went directly from the BMV to the PD and had no issues whatsoever.

"Yes"

Thanks everybody. I'm going to get it updated today, then submit my LTCH form online. Then it's just a few finger swipes, and the waitin' game.
