The Work and Family Mobility Act becomes law in Massachusetts

Starting July 2023, eligible residents in Massachusetts can obtain a Standard (Class D or M) driver's license, regardless of immigration status, under the Work and Family Mobility Act.

To obtain a license, the Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles (MA RMV) will require all applicants to prove their identity and date of birth, social security status, and Massachusetts residency. Drivers will also be required to pass a learner's permit exam, vision screening, and a road test.

The MA RMV has published a Work and Family Mobility Act website: http://mass.gov/WFMA. They have also launched a Work and Family Mobility Act informational phone line to provide information about how to apply for a standard driver’s license (in multiple languages): 857-9362 (WFMA).
