You can order your new drivers license by clicking on this link. You don't need to go to the DMV to do so. It can all be done online. However, to get a new Real ID, you must do that in-person. Make sure to have these things ready when you order a new license/replace one: license number, last four digits of your social security number (or the entire number if you don't have a license), birth date, zip code, and a credit or debit card.
