Plus that does not allow you to qualify for a CDL license legally through the federal gov't. The CBP app is no longer being used, that doesn't mean that anyone who entered using it is suddenly classified as being here illegally.

This narrative you seem to want to push that they're just handing out CDL's to anyone who wants one is just dumb. Edited 5 hours ago by GalagaGuy 1 Quote

This narrative you seem to want to push that they're just handing out CDL's to anyone who wants one is just dumb. I hold a class B and have been A certified in the past. My GVW of my toy hauler requires it. I know all about testing it requires. Pennsylvania has a know fraud issue with CDL’s. https://www.trucksafe.com/post/fmcsa-flags-pennsylvania-for-non-domiciled-cdl-irregularities FMCSA’s concerns surfaced during Pennsylvania’s 2025 Annual Program Review, an in-depth evaluation the Agency conducts to ensure each state’s CDL program meets the requirements of federal law. Pennsylvania reported that it currently has more than 12,400 active non-domiciled CLPs and CDLs, a sizeable population for a state whose licensing system plays a major role in serving non-permanent residents. As FMCSA dug into PennDOT’s records, it began to notice problems —small, repeated errors that, when aggregated, point to deeper gaps in policy, documentation, and technological controls. The Agency sampled 150 individual non-domiciled CDL transactions and found eight that failed to comply with federal rules. Taken alone, eight might appear statistically insignificant, but with FMCSA's enhanced focus on these issues, this is probelmatic for Pennsylvania. If states overlook something as simple as an expiration date or miscode a lawful permanent resident as a non-domiciled applicant, the entire underlying eligibility system becomes unreliable.

GalagaGuy Posted 3 hours ago Posted 3 hours ago The rule violations they found had nothing to do with giving licenses to people not qualified to be on the road in a big rig. Straight from the report........... 1 Quote
