The Motor Vehicle Division will be using a new system for all Driver Services starting November 13, 2023. The new system will allow students to complete a Class D pre-application online. Details about this upcoming availability can be found in the memorandum below from Tyson Miller. Please share this information with anyone that would be able to let parents know this is an option moving forward.

The Montana Motor Vehicle Division is dedicated to driving customer service. To this end, the department is implementing new technology to improve customer service for all Montana residents. 
1. Students participating in CDTP can fill out a pre-application on e-Services to register themselves in CARS. Once the pre-application is complete, CARS runs a verification against the CARS system and SSOLV to check if the customer already exists in system. If the SSOLV check passes and no record exists, CARS will automatically create a driver record for the customer and issue a driver's license number. The customer can provide their driver's license and confirmation number to their driving schools to be used for issuing their permits.
2. Driving instructors’ CDTP requirements will not change, however, students will now be able to complete a pre-application through MVD e-services. If they have completed this application, they will be assigned a confirmation and license number. When completing the paper application for class, students will be asked to provide the driver license and confirmation number they received during the pre-application process. Providing this information helps to ensure no duplicate records are created.

There will be updates happening soon to the TEDRS home page. There will be multiple forms added for quick access. The forms will be: Class D Application, Examiner Testing Page, Medical Evaluation Form, TEP, and a TEDRS tutorial PowerPoint created by LeAnn Haas to assist with TEDRS forms and deadlines.
