Anyone ever get a copy of their USVI driving record from DMV to bring to the states?

We spent 2 hours today at DMV supposedly getting one but what they gave us was a "Verification" of drivers license. They claimed "it's the same thing". No info about anything other than the drivers license on the form. In fact all they did was fill in a form with a typewriter that we filled out by hand with information from our drivers license.

I did it by mail, and mine specifically stated " No traffic violations found"

Any details on how you did it by mail? Call somewhere?
Cause we just spent 57 bucks on something we didn't need.

Where are you moving to, quirion?
I haven't gotten a FL license yet and wonder if I'll need the same thing?

Michigan. I don't believe either require it but insurance might. I was being careful.

When I insured my car in FL, they contacted the agency I insure my truck here on STT to get my driving record from them.

Good luck with your relocation.
Get those long johns ready!

I needed it not for my FL license but for my insurance (Geico).

Have you contacted the DMV in Michigan to inquire about its requirements?

Also, you can call the most likely insurance agent in Michigan and ask the same.

Most likely, you can find the information online - yes, indeed, big America.

There is a VIPD form. TRAFFIC RECORDS CHECK. I mailed it in with copy of my VI license, social security card and a money order for $7.00, with a cover letter telling them why I was requesting one and where to send it. Got it in a couple of weeks .

· Send a self-addressed stamped envelope with a check or money order in the amount of $7.00 payable to the U.S. Virgin Island's government.

· Include a photocopy of the U.S. Virgin Island driver's license and social security card.

Thanks. Oddly I called a number from a pervious thread and got the Fsted police station. They said just mail in a letter with info and copies of license and they would send it out.
Now I am thinking Ill add the check and envelope too 🙂

Thanks

I would never put a copy of my social security card in the mail. Your drivers license should suffice.
