I went to Bayonne MVC last week and that place is a fucking dump, but they got me in and out in 35 minutes.

For what service? Registration and licensing can be very different. And Real ID different too.

RealID actually. The key is to be organized and use paper clips and fill out the form beforehand. I actually challenged myself to work through the whole process without saying anything. I managed to get away with “hello” “thanks” and “can I take my picture again”

Being organized (as I was) doesn't help when it takes an hour after your appointment time to get to the 1st station. I guess going to Lodi was my mistake. I've seen Bayonne be a shitshow too, and since appointment was required didn't think time of day mattered.

Speaking of the form, why the hell do they not have an option to populate it online and either print it out at home or bring it up online there? The clerk apparently disliked my handwriting (filled it out on my manila envelope while on line) and wasted quite a bit of time filling out a new one. There were no changes.

They do have a form online, it’s fillable then you can print it out and sign it.
