and what do I do if my license expired while I was deployed?
You can renew your license if it was valid at any time during your military service. Active military personnel will have to show proof of date of entry into military service
is anything being done to help us when this happens?
Yes, pursuant to Executive Order No. 2 by Governor Andrew M. Cuomo, all licenses and registrations for New York State military personnel returning from active military duty relating to the war on terrorism and military action in Iraq will automatically be extended.
