The Secretary of State must have received notification of your driver education com- pletion and the notation must appear on your driving record before a driver’s license is issued. Students whose birthdays fall on certain dates are required to pass a driv- ing exam administered at a Driver Services facility even though they may have taken and passed a road test conducted by their driver education instructor. If you receive your driver’s license prior to the expiration of your instruction permit, you may not be required to pay an additional fee when applying for the driver’s license. .
