What are the requirements for obtaining a learner's permit?

Asked 2 years ago
In Wisconsin, obtaining a learner's permit, also known as an instruction permit, involves several specific requirements. First, the applicant must be at least 15 years and six months old. They need to complete a driver education course approved by the Wisconsin Division of Motor Vehicles. This course typically includes both classroom instruction and behind-the-wheel training. After completing the driver education course, the applicant must provide proof of identity and residency. Acceptable forms of identification may include a birth certificate, Social Security card, or a valid passport. The applicant will also need to present parental consent if they are under 18 years of age. Once these documents are prepared, the applicant should visit a local DMV service center to apply for the learner's permit. During this visit, they will be required to pass a vision screening test. If everything is in order and they meet all requirements, the learner's permit will be issued. If you seek more detailed information or specific questions, it is advisable to browse the Wisconsin Division of Motor Vehicles website for further guidance on the process and to find contact information.
