ETS Forum for Essex in New Jersey

Hello Kareem, Good question. New Jersey allows a 2-point reduction every five years after completion of an approved defensive driving course. Here is how the timing works: - We electronically report your completion to the New Jersey MVC, usually within 24 hours - The MVC posts the 2-point reduction within 7-14 business days - Request a copy of your driving record after that window to confirm If the points have not been removed after 14 business days, reply with your New Jersey driver's license number and we will re-verify the submission.
