If the Tennessee Driver Education Course completion is not shown by the Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security, confirm you submitted your certificate within 90 days and allow for processing time. If your record is still not updated, contact the regulator and your course provider for help.
Sometimes your Tennessee Driver Education Course completion may not appear on your record right away. This can happen due to missing documents, late submissions, or processing delays. Follow these steps to resolve the issue and make sure your point reduction is applied.
Check for Your Course Completion Certificate
After finishing the Tennessee Driver Education Course, you should receive a certificate by email from Driving Logic. Search your inbox and spam folder for the certificate. If you cannot find it, contact Driving Logic to confirm your course completion and request a resend.
Verify Submission Deadline and Processing Time
You must submit your certificate to the Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security (DSHS) within 90 days of your conviction date for point reduction. Submissions after this deadline may not be accepted. After you submit, allow reasonable processing time for the DSHS to update your record. For more information about deadlines and processing, review the Tennessee DSHS driver services page: the Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security’s traffic school information.
