if i have a NJ license and am getting a mississippi license do I have to turn in my new jersey one?

Answer 1

Yes. Condition of getting a license in any state.

Answer 2

Yes, you are allowed one license in the state where you reside. They will essentially exchange licenses with you, Mississippi in exchange for a New Jersey one.

(The only exception to that rule is Florida, who will issue a license good in Florida only for those who winter there and spend the summer in their home state.)

Answer 3

Why would you want two? Just say that you lost the NJ one, you'll need to contact the office in the previous state and have them fax your driving records to the Mississippi one, but if you think it's worth the trouble for a picture you alone think was a good picture, go for it.

Answer 4

Yes, you do & you should not have to take any driving tests either. A license from another state grants "driving" privileges in another state and so when you move from 1 state to another you are granted reciprocity.

I think the only place in the U.S. that has a modified rule to this is the District of Columbia

Answer 5

The State of Mississippi should take your old license when the issue you one of theirs.

Answer 6

They will take your NJ license from you when you get your Mississippi license.

Answer 7

Depends on Mississippi state policy.

Answer 8

What sort of license? Driving then yes. Other professional licenses then probably not.

Answer 9

Ya sure do.
They will say..."Gimmie dem license boy!"
Let see hea....
New Jersey???????
Git the rope.

Answer 10

Yes, you do.
