Getting your driver’s license with a learner’s permit

• Be at least 16 years and 180 days old;
• Hold a valid Indiana learner’s permit for 60 days;
• Pass a standard vision screening test;
• Pass a written examination; and
• Pass a roadway skills test (unless you qualify for a roadway skills test waiver).

If you are less than 18 years of age when you apply for a driver’s license, you must have a parent or guardian sign the financial responsibility agreement portion of the driver’s license application.

In addition to presenting a valid learner’s permit when applying for a driver license, you must also present certain documents of identification proving your identity, residency status and Social Security number.
