Sep 11, 2020 SALEM – The wildfires devastating Oregon are leaving many without essential documents such as a driver license, ID card or proof of vehicle ownership. Oregonians who need to replace damaged documents can go online to take care of most of these needs at DMV2U.Oregon.gov. The Oregon DMV will send you a renewal postcard before your driver's license expires; however, you can renew up to 12 months before the expiration date. If you do not receive the reminder, you can still renew your driver's license. If you've already renewed your license, you can check its status by contacting the OR DMV.
