National guide
Review common record updates for class changes, restrictions, organ donor status, emergency contacts, and related driver-file changes.
Overview
Driver information updates include record changes that are not always handled as simple renewal or replacement. Depending on the state, a driver may need to update restrictions, endorsements, medical information, emergency contacts, organ donor status, veteran designation, sex designation, class changes, or other information tied to the driver file.

Usually only simple record updates are online. Removing a driving restriction may require medical clearance, testing, or an office visit.
Some driver-file changes are administrative, while others affect driving privileges and require proof before the agency changes the record.
