There aren’t any available dmv appointments to get drivers permit for the next 18 months or more. I need to get my license ASAP how can I get my permit? Is there an option to pay more or something?

I needed to wait three months for mine (@Coney Island DMV office) but 18 months is beyond the pale. Try different locations and see if they have appointments for sooner

I don't think that's for brand new drivers. But I might be wrong

I think you can make an appointment on line with much less waiting time. Certain days are busier, like Fridays. You will still have to go in person for written test. Make sure you read all the details of what papers to take with you. Try Haverstraw, near Monsey in Rockland county.

First time driver? Regular person- not disabled or in the army? If I can get it online that would be great but I’m not sure anyone can do that

I called the local dmv office they didn’t want to check available appointments over the phone just told me to check their calendar online every day and wait for cancellations to get in. What do all people who need license now do?

Check late at night that's when they open more appointments, check multiple locations. My relative- first time New driver made an appointment recently for about 2 or 3 months away then a day later got an email offering to do it online and then they allowed a much earlier appointment to take care of picture and paperwork in person. Keep trying also beginning of the month is better than the end of the month so look again.

If you have AAA, they are now offering some DMV services by appointment. They're much less busy than the actual DMV so it's easier to get an appointment. It can't hurt to call if you're a member and see if you can get a permit through them.
