So I called DPS and got a parrot.

You're welcome.

I'm pretty sure they have to answer questions from a script. They would create problems if they didn't.

I stumped the young lady who answers the phone the time I called, and I eventually got transferred to a lawyer.

Good luck in any case.

You could call DPS and ask them. I'm pretty sure they will consider any conviction having to do with drugs "use."

Texas Administrative Code, Title 37, Part 1, Chapter 6, Subchapter B, Rule §6.15, Basic Application Materials Required.

I can't create a direct link to it, but it's on the info.sos.state.tx.us server.

Those FAQs on the DPS web site are sometimes inaccurate. The writer was thinking of the 6-month limit for renewals.

You have two years from the date on your TR-100 form to submit the application to DPS.

I don't know about multiple offenses 5 to 10 years in the past. I never figured it out.
