- You have to wait out any mandatory suspension period due to the DUI and clear up any other holds on your driving privilege in CA.

What exactly does this mean?
- On a 1st Offense DUI the mandatory suspension period could be 6 to 10 months. On a second offense it would likely be 2 years.
- If there are any other reasons that you would otherwise not be eligible for a license, you must also clear those issues up. DMV can suspend a driver’s license for many reasons.

Why should I care what CA DMV does since I don't live there?
- The CA DMV will put the offense in the National Registry which may cause your state to reject your application to get a license in your new or home state.
- If you do business or travel here for pleasure and want to be able to drive in CA, this will allow you to do so.
