Can anyone tell me where I can get a color copy of the front and back of my Texas drivers license made to send in with the renewal check list?
I have been to Staples and UPS/Kinkos and they both refuse to do it. Both operations told me that it was a $35,000 fine if they made color copies of a drivers license. I did get one location to make one, but they made it at 200% larger. HELP!

Is someone requesting that you do this? I was not required to do this on either of my renewals.

It is on the DPS CHL website after you log in to start the renewal. There is a list of required documents that must be sent in. This list includes the check list with bar code, the CHL-100 form and a color copy of your drivers license back and front. Also, my instructor said that it would be needed when I took the 4 hour renewal class on Saturday 7/7/12.

Hmm. Now that I think about it, I took my last class with Crossfire and they did hold my DL for a bit. Maybe they made a copy of it when I wasn't looking. Do you have access to a color scanner? It's not saying much, but I still don't remember sending in anything else with the CHL-100. Maybe I did, but I don't remember.

Hopefully, one of the instructors will be along soon to help you and straighten out my memory. Maybe the 200% copy is acceptable.

I just did my renewal and did not need a copy of my DL. It seems strange that of all people, the DPS would need a copy of a DL that they issued???

Where are you located? Most people I know have a full color all in one scanner copier printer. If nearby, you're welcome to mine.

As far as I know, the color copy of the driver's license is only needed for people with non-resident CHL's and a non_Texas drivers license.

And we have a winner! You don't need to copy your Texas driver's license.

Thanks Crossfire. I started to wonder about that possibility.

We don't copy driver's licenses. We only need the number to put it on your CHL-100.

Does anyone here know if color photocopying a Texas ID or license is against any Texas law. Ive looked on the penal and transportation code and found nothing. I found nothing on the administrative code either. Thanks guys.

I don't know of any law prohibiting you from copying your DL. Most employers do so especially if you will be driving company vehicles etc.

My doctors, and both my credit unions have color copied my DL.

Send them the 200% larger copies.... Why not? Or... Resize them to whatever dimensions you like.
Easy to do with free software... I like IRFanView (simple) and Paint.Net (more features, still free).
