On May 26, 2021, the FMCSA issued additional extensions for the following in response to the COVID-19 pandemic:
• Medical Examination Certificates (MEC), Commercial Driver’s Licenses or Commercial Learner’s Permits that expired on or after March 1, 2021, are extended until August 31, 2021
• Medical Examination Certificates or CDL licenses with an expiration date of 12-1-2020 up to 2-28-21 that were covered under the previous FMCSA extension will expire on 6-1-2021
