  • Going to the MVD used to be something that was almost viewed as a threat to one's life. It meant that you'd live at the MVD for an entire day without food, water, facilities, and would be swamped with boredom and suicidal thoughts. Today the MVD is much easier to palette. To start off, if you go online you can see the amount of people in line as well as the estimated wait time. You can do this for the MVD office as well as emissions testing (they even have cameras at the emissions testing place). In my experience, the times are fairly accurate. When I arrived I noted the time the website said. Website says 11mins, 16 people in line at 8:57am. I was called to my first window (to retake my licence photo) at 9:05am. I was called to my final window at 9:12am. I was out of the parking lot before 9:30am. Website estimated time: 11mins Time to final window: 15mins. Pretty damn good! As for the people complaining about the "randomness" of the number calling. If you actually observed you'd understand that all the numbers are called in order, i.e. A-001, A-002, A-003, etc. while at the same time other prefixes may be on different numbers... T-041... So you might hear D-123, A-009, T-014, etc but that doesn't mean that they are going out of order... it simply means that different jobs categories are being processed. I had an "A" which I assume is for general tasks such as renewing licences. Other letters probably mean vehicle inspections, legal, licence testing, etc. Also, something else that is nice is that you can do the paperwork at home and print off a "barcode" and take it there and just give it to the clerk so they don't have to type anything in. They just scan and then do the other tasks that are actually needed aside from typing. So here is my suggestions: (1) Leave your attitude at home. You're dealing with the red-tape queen - the government. Everyone is in this together, including the workers. (2) Don't expect to be in and out on your lunch break. This isn't Jimmy Johns serving you a sub. (3) Come with your cell phone charged up to read the news or watch YouTube or a good-old fashioned book. (4) Do as much paperwork at home and bring in the printout. (5) Check the website to see the wait time. Sometimes if you drive a little further than your normal office you can save a lot of time.
