@ivy-hernandez 

 

You didn't say which state???  But I'm guessing it's NY?

FIRST...make sure you are using the right number

 

...depending on the license type...check the following pictures provided by NY:

AND, it is not the DMV ID number

BUT BEYIOND THAT !!!!

Some folks are saying it works if you enter ONLY the first three Alphabetic or Numeric characters....no more than that.
