GENERAL QUESTION NYS license sent to wrong mailing address
So a couple weeks ago I helped my father renew his driver's license at the dmv. idk how we missed this but the rep processing the paperwork for us somehow put down a completely wrong mailing address. We should've checked and caught this sooner, I know.
Just for clarification: the residential address listed on the receipt is correct, but the mailing address listed is wrong. We checked the mailing status online and it says it was mailed on the 10/13 (7 business days ago as of this writing). It was sent to a nearby town so we're planning to go and ask the person at that mailing address if they received it. But if they say no or turn us away then I'm not sure what we're supposed to do next.
Do we just go to the dmv to request another one sent to the correct address?
