CDLIS and State-to-State (S2S) Participants:
Colorado, Rhode Island, and South Dakota will begin using S2S Driver History Record (DHR) functionality from Monday, March 11, 2024. Tasks related to onboarding these states will be conducted on Sunday, March 10, 2024, during the regularly scheduled maintenance window of 2:00 AM ET to 5:00 AM ET.
Central Site will be fully functional with the exception of the scheduled weekend maintenance. However, please note that states are encouraged to avoid this weekend for performing maintenance, deployment activities, or Central Site data extractions that require the Central Site to be available. Please contact AAMVA if such activities are unavoidable.
- Sunday, March 10, 2024, 2:00 AM ET: All applications using NCS will be unavailable for regularly scheduled weekend maintenance. AAMVA will conduct implementation activities to bring CO, RI, and SD onboard with S2S DHR during the scheduled maintenance.
- Sunday, March 10, 2024, 5:00 AM ET: Central Site will be brought back up and will be fully functional.
All other systems (PDPS, NMVTIS, SSOLV, etc.) will be up and running during their usual available hours with the exception of the regularly scheduled weekend maintenance on March 10, 2024 (mentioned in #1).
AAMVA would like to remind our members that the US Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration requires states to perform Central Site inquiries prior to making any CDL licensing decisions. Under US federal law, this inquiry must take place not more than 24 hours prior to transfers and new issuances, and not more than 10 days prior to renewals and upgrades (See 49 CFR 384.205, and §383.73(a)(3)(ii)). Also, the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration requires states to query the Central Site before the issuance of an original, renewal, temporary, or duplicate driver (non-commercial) license (See 49 U.S.C. 30304(e)).
One of the benefits of S2S DHR is that DHR Administration provides states with new measures to improve the administration of non-CDL driver history (DH). DHR supports the electronic exchange of out-of-state convictions and withdrawals, provides visibility of individuals that may have more than one DHR, and sets rules for maintaining Driving History in a standardized manner for all non-CDLIS drivers.
If you have any questions on the CDLIS/S2S downtime that need immediate attention please contact the AAMVA Operations Help Desk.
