Flip,
Yes,bring your Birth Cert..

I found the paper work from 2002,the year I became a Non-Citizen,for my license renewal.
The box for 'Yes" or "No" was checked "YES" - I'm a citizen.


Last Febuary I traded in my 7 month old Harley for another,at the Harley dealership.They did all the paperwork and hand carry it down to the proper tax people,etc..

About a month later I received the Title for my new bike.

My last name was spelled wrong,had a extra letter in it.I called the DPS about the problem. They said no problem - send it back with some money and a copy of your Driver's License.We will be glad to fix it.
I tried to explain that the problem wasn't on my end because it has been a very long time since I misspelled my own last name - all 4 letters of it.

She repeated herself like Ms. Garcia did Wednesday. Must be a job requirement.

I returned to the Dealer and showed them the problem.He said if it's our problem we will pay for it.If it's their's ,they get to pay for it. I handed it to him and went for a ride.

A month later a good Title showed up,everything correct.

I was by the Dealership later that week and asked James who got to pay for it.
The DPS paid.

I had already figured out how the mistake was made before I had called the DPS.
The correct letter "u" and the extra letter "i" are next to one another on the keyboard.

FAT FINGERS.
