Ava's answer
Connecticut residents with a license, non-driver ID or vehicle registration must tell DMV within 48 hours of moving. The official page says the online change takes about 5-7 minutes and is free.
- Report within 48 hours: Anyone with a Connecticut vehicle registration, driver's license or non-driver ID must update DMV within 48 hours of an address change.
- Gather your details: Name as shown on your license or ID, date of birth, current address on file, license or ID number, and Social Security number.
- Change it online: The change takes effect once DMV processes it. The same online change covers your license/ID and vehicle registration addresses.
- Update your registration card: Cross out the old address on your vehicle registration and write the new one in the space provided.
- Add an address label: Get a label from any Connecticut police department or print Form B-159, and place it on the back of your license or ID.
