People testing for new licenses are requested to apply at the fcc,gov website for a Federal Registration Number (FRN). This is so we protect people from identity theft by not using a Social Security Account Number. Please go to the fcc.gov website and apply for a Federal Registration Number.

People upgrading their existing licenses are required to bring a copy of their current license that we can keep as it will be forwarded to the ARRL.
 
There is a fee of $15 for exams. 

When you take the FCC exam, you will be required to have photo identification. A drivers license, passport, Georgia Concealed firearms License with photo or similar.

For children, please use the following rules:

“When no photo ID is available, the candidate must present any two of the following items:

• Non-photo ID/driver’s license (some states still have them);

• Social Security Card (as FCC now requires each applicant to supply a taxpayer ID number)

• Birth certificate (must have the appropriate seal);

• Minor’s work permit or school report card;

• Utility bill, bank statement or other business correspondence that specifically names the person; or

• Postmarked envelope addressed to the person at his or her current mailing address as it appears on the Form 605.”

Even a video game magazine or Boy Scout Boy’s Life magazine addressed the the child will serve as one of the two required IDs. Even a school year book can provide photo proof of the child being tested. Even school report cards can be used. Anything else of a similar nature that demonstrates child’s identity and residence. By being accompanied by his or her parent does not satisfy the rule.
