I think the charge was 8.00, I paid with a check. The wait was horrible, there is no quicker line. FYI, you have to update your pic, I didn't realize this and wasn't ready for one

I don't remember if it coat anything. If it did, it was not much. I got my paper work off of ny stae dmv website. Unfortunatly, there is only one line. I went there is in the afternoon and it was dead. I did all of this in about 30 minutes.

I went on a Friday & that seemed to be quieter than other days I've gone. I went during lunch to the Huntington one - I work in Melville. And I think I was in & out within 15 minutes. $10 for the photo/license.
