Submit

What to bring to the exam

      1. A legal photo ID (driver’s license, passport). 

      2. When no photo ID is available, two forms of identification must
          be presented:
          a. non-photo ID/driver's license (some states still have them)
          b. birth certificate (must have the appropriate seal)
          c. social security card
          d. library card
          e. utility bill, bank statement or other business correspondence that 
              specifically names the person; or a postmarked envelope
              addressed to the person at his or her current mailing address as it 
              appears on the Form 605.

      3. Students may bring any of the above items and/or a school ID,
          minor's work permit, report card, or a legal guardian may present a 
          photo ID.

      4.  Bring your Social Security Number (SSN) or your FCC issued
           Federal Registration Number (FRN). VEC’s are required by the FCC
           to submit either your SSN or your FRN number with your license
           application form. If you prefer not to give your SSN at the exam
           session, then you may register your SSN with the FCC before exam
           day. Once you have a FCC issued FRN, you may no longer use your
           SSN on the application. For instructions on how to register your
           SSN with the FCC and receive a FRN, visit the FCC's FAQ page and
           the FCC's registration instructions page.  Please note that some 
           exam teams will only accept a valid FRN on your application.  
           Check with your local exam team before exam day.

      5.  If applicable, bring the original and a photocopy of your current
           Amateur Radio license and any Certificates of Successful
           Completion of Examination (CSCE) you may hold from previous
           exam sessions. The photocopy(s) will not be returned.

      6. Two number two pencils with erasers and a pen. 

      7. A calculator with the memory erased and formulas cleared is
          allowed. You may not bring any written notes or calculations into the
          exam session. Slide rules and logarithmic tables are acceptable, as
          long as they're free of notes and formulas. Cell phone must be
          silenced or turned off during the exam session and the phones'
          calculator function may not be used. In addition, iPhones, iPads,
          Androids, smartphones, or Blackberry devices and all similar 
          electronic devices with a calculator capability, may NOT be used.

      8. Bring a check, a money order or cash to cover the exam session
          fee(s). Check the ARRL VEC’s current exam fee.
