Summary

The NY DMV form DTP-423, titled Driving School Instructor Application Checklist, serves as a comprehensive guide for driving schools and instructor applicants to ensure all necessary documentation is included in a licensing submission. The checklist requires the school name, applicant name, and driver license ID, and mandates the inclusion of the core MV-523 application form along with specific test results, including the MV-367 written test answer sheet, the DTP-2004A road sign examination chart, and the MV-501 road test evaluation for car instructors.

Beyond testing documentation, the form outlines requirements for identity and qualification verification, such as a recent photograph, a high school diploma or GED, and a certified driving record abstract for out-of-state license holders. Medical and training prerequisites are also specified, including an MV-619 Vision Test Report and a 30-hour Basic Instructor's Course completion certificate. Finally, the document details the necessary application fee payable to the Commissioner of Motor Vehicles and provides instructions for mailing the completed packet to the DMV’s Bureau of Driver Training Regulation.

Pro Tip: To ensure a smooth application process, double-check that you have included the original written and road test results for the specific vehicle type, an original vision report, and the required $10 fee. If your high school diploma is from a foreign country, you must use a New York State-approved evaluator to verify it before submission.
