Alaska Permit Application Form D1: How to Fill It Out Correctly

The official Alaska DMV Division permit application is Form D1, titled the Application for Alaska Driver License, Permit or Identification Card. This form is required for all new instruction permits, provisional licenses, and full Class D licenses.

Where to Get Alaska DMV Form D1

the Alaska DMV Division permit application form number is Form D1. You can access it in two ways:

• Online Pre-Application: Use the Alaska DMV Division Online Pre-Application portal to enter your information and receive a barcode for faster service at the office.
• Downloadable PDF: Download and print the Form D1 PDF to fill out by hand before your visit.

Form D1 is valid for use upon submission; there is no pre-printed expiration date. However, information must be current at the time of your DMV appointment.

How Long Is the Alaska DMV Pre-Application or Barcode Valid?

Alaska DMV does not publish a fixed barcode-validity period on its main forms guidance. If the pre-application is old or any information has changed, complete a fresh application rather than relying on outdated details.

Can I Edit My Alaska DMV Pre-Application After Submitting It?

If you spot a mistake before your DMV visit, correct the information before the credential is issued. If the online process does not let you edit the saved submission, complete a fresh Form D1 or tell the DMV representative about the correction before signing.

What if my mailing address and physical address are different? Enter each address in its correct field. Your physical address should show where you actually live, while your mailing address should be a deliverable address where DMV mail can reach you.

How to Fill Out the Alaska Instruction Permit Application

Complete Form D1 using black or blue ink. Do not sign the form until you are at the DMV counter with a representative.

How to Complete Form D1

1. Personal Information: Enter your full legal name exactly as it appears on your birth certificate or passport. Include your Date of Birth, Social Security Number, height, weight, hair color, and eye color.
2. Address Details: Provide both a mailing address (where your card will be sent) and your physical Alaska residence address. You must prove your residence with documents like a utility bill.
3. Citizenship and Voter Registration: Mark your citizenship status. Alaska law integrates voter registration; you must answer 'Yes' or 'No' to registering to vote.
4. Medical Questions: Answer truthfully about medical history, such as seizures or loss of consciousness. Answering 'Yes' may require a separate medical evaluation (Form 468).
5. Organ Donation: Indicate your preference for the Donate Life Alaska registry.
6. Signature: Sign the form only in the presence of a DMV representative or Notary Public.

Parental Consent for Applicants Under 18

If you are under 18, you must also submit a notarized Form 433 (Parental Consent). Your parent or legal guardian must sign this form, accepting financial liability.

• If your parent accompanies you to the DMV, they can sign Form 433 in front of the agent.
• If your parent cannot come, their signature on Form 433 must be notarized beforehand.

Bring your original birth certificate to prove the parent-child relationship.

Common Form Mistakes and How to Avoid Them

Small Detail, Big Impact: Before leaving home, cross-check the legal name, date of birth, and SSN on Form D1 against your identity documents and Social Security records. A mismatch can delay the transaction until the information is corrected.

Can Parents Fill Out the Permit Application?

Parents can help you type or write information onto Form D1, but you (the applicant) must sign it yourself in front of the DMV agent. This is a legal certification of the information's accuracy.

The parental role is to provide consent and assume liability via Form 433, not to sign the primary application on your behalf.

Full Alaska permit rules are at the Alaska learner's permit guide.

Read This Carefully: If your parent works during DMV hours in Anchorage, get Form 433 notarized at a bank or UPS Store the weekend before your appointment. This prevents a last-minute scramble and ensures you can proceed even if your parent cannot take time off.

How to Fix Mistakes on Form D1

If you find an error, the correction process depends on when you catch it.

Fixing Errors Before Submission

• If filling out the PDF digitally, correct typos before printing.
• If using a paper form, draw a single line through the error, write the correction neatly, and initial it.

Example: A teen in Juneau accidentally wrote his weight as '250' instead of '150.' He drew a line through '250,' wrote '150' next to it, and initialed the change before handing it to the clerk, avoiding a delay.

Can I use correction fluid or white-out on Alaska Form D1? Alaska DMV's forms page does not say that white-out is accepted. The safer choice is to correct the form electronically and reprint it, or start a clean paper copy so the information is easy to read.

Correcting Errors After the Permit is Issued

If the permit has already been issued with incorrect information, the correction belongs to the dedicated errors-on-permit process rather than the original application workflow. The steps depend on whether the DMV or applicant caused the error.

Forms Used to Correct Permit Information

• Form D1: For correcting personal information on a permit.
• Form 433: For correcting parental consent information.

Do Not Overlook This: When at the DMV counter, verbally confirm your Social Security Number and date of birth with the clerk before they process payment. A clerk in Fairbanks processed an application with a transposed SSN, and the applicant had to pay $15 for a duplicate the following day to fix the error.
