Nutmeg and DMV team up for convenient license renewal experience

Connecticut drivers can now renew their drivers licenses in first-ever state partnership between DMV and a credit union

Governor Dannel P. Malloy announced today that the Connecticut DMV will open its doors at Nutmeg State Financial Credit Union’s Milford location. The collaboration is part of the new DMV Express initiative to partner with local organizations to provide driver’s license and identification renewals.

The credit union was chosen as a partner by the DMV following the announcement in 2016 that the AAA Northeast motor club would stop renewing licenses at its offices in Fairfield and New Haven counties. The partnership allows for people to conveniently take advantage of either Nutmeg or DMV Express services.

Nutmeg’s Milford location will be their second in New Haven county and will be the credit union’s first location that features completely self-serve technology. Members will be able to utilize this location to perform transactions including account transfers, loan payments, check and cash deposits and withdrawals, get a new or replacement debit or credit card, apply for a loan, and more.

In addition to the extensive and convenient services already offered at Nutmeg, residents will now be able to renew their driver’s licenses in the same location. The service is a first of its kind in the state. “We are so excited to partner with the DMV,” said John Holt, President & CEO of Nutmeg. “Our intent is to offer convenience through technology whether you are doing your banking or renewing your license. We have always been dedicated to providing outstanding service and convenience for our members and will offer that same commitment to the DMV clientele.”

Eventually, the credit union envisions opening additional licensing centers in the area. Nutmeg is continuing to expand their branches from central Connecticut into the southwestern and western reaches of the state.

There was a grand opening for Nutmeg’s Milford location, located at 977 Boston Post Road, Milford, CT 06460, on Wednesday, June 6th at 11:30 AM with Governor Dannel P. Malloy and DMV Commissioner Michael Bzdyra. The celebration included a ribbon cutting ceremony, giveaways, and refreshments.

“We are excited about opening this Milford location to serve the Southern Connecticut area. We believe this partnership will serve the citizens of Connecticut well by giving them additional places for license and ID card renewal services,” said DMV Commissioner Michael Bzdyra.
