    I just got my renewal package in the mail. I am living out of state taking care of a family member.

    In the package was a finger print card. The form said I could renew online, so I went in a did that. No mention of a finger print card was mentioned online….

    I (of course) had my fingprints done (12 years ago?) with my initial application.
    Has anyone had a new fingerprint card required with a recent renewal?

    I've renewed twice both times at DMV. I was never asked for a new fingerprint card. Both renewals a new more recent photo was taken. Renew at DMV or on line I don't think that would change anything regarding the need for a new fingerprint card.

    In Alabama they've never taken a new picture, they just pull up my old one, from 20 years ago, on file and recycle it, lol.

    Just an update; got my new card in the mail today.

    So just in case anyone else gets a form in the future that says “new fingerprint card required” just know that you can ignore that and just apply online (have to upload a passport picture) and it works out.

    Thanks
