MassDOT Registry of Motor Vehicles announced it is extending the January 30 deadline for Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) holders to meet the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s requirement that CDL & Commercial Permit holders provide their licensing jurisdiction with their self-certification information and a copy of the US DOT Medical Certificate.
The deadline has been extended by 90 days to April 30, 2014. Failure to complete driver self-certification by April 30, 2014, or failure to re-certify by the self-certification expiration date thereafter, will result in the downgrade of the driver’s CDL to a Class D License.

The RMV has made the process simple from a computer by using its Online Services Link to CDL Self-Certification.
