Submit the completed VOE form to the Texas Department of Public Safety via the method specified by DPS. Ensure all information is accurate and the necessary signatures are obtained. Consult with your school or institution for specific submission procedures and deadlines.

The VOE form expires 30 days after issuance during the school year. Forms issued in the last 5 days of the school year expire on the first day of the following school year. Important dates for 2024 and 2025 include the start and end dates of the academic year for your respective school.

The purpose of the Verification of Enrollment and Attendance (VOE) form is to provide proof that a student is currently enrolled and attends school regularly. This form is essential for students under the age of 18 who are applying for or renewing their Texas driver's license. By verifying attendance and enrollment, the form ensures that students meet the statutory requirements set by the Texas Department of Public Safety. The form is issued by the student's school or institution and must be completed accurately, including obtaining necessary signatures from school administrators or designees, as well as parental consent where applicable. Submitting a valid VOE form allows students to proceed with their driver's license application or renewal process, ensuring compliance with Texas state regulations. It promotes accountability and helps in maintaining proper attendance records across educational institutions in Texas.
