If a mailed application is lost, what must you do?

If a mailed application is lost, resubmitting with a duplicate form and documentation is the appropriate course of action. This ensures that the application is properly processed and allows you to provide any necessary information or verification again. By taking this step, you can avoid prolonged waiting times and increase the chances of your application being handled efficiently.

Waiting for a few weeks to see if it arrives may lead to unnecessary delays and could hinder your ability to proceed with your plans. Contacting the DMV for a new application could potentially result in confusion or additional waiting, as they might instruct you to follow the resubmission process anyway. Visiting a DMV office might be inconvenient and not necessary, especially if the issue can be resolved by submitting the required information again through the appropriate channels.
