In either case, if your license was valid at any time during your military service, the DMV will renew it.

• Before you are deployed, you should file a Notification of Military Service (Form MV-75) with the DMV. This form notifies the DMV you are entering or in the military, and wish to have your driver status maintained. You'll file part 1 with the DMV and keep part 2 with your driver license. Filing this form will ensure that the DMV doesn't purge your license once the expiration date passes.
