Many Americans may not be up for renewal but interested in a REAL ID<\/strong>. For your information, you will need to have a valid ID before May 7, 2025<\/strong>. Especially, if you would like to travel within the United States<\/strong>, access a federal facility that requires it or even a nuclear plant.<\/p>\n

Do you happen to hold a valid passport<\/strong>? Then, you can comfortably wait to get a REAL ID until renewal is necessary. So, you will not need to renew your driver’s license or state’s ID yet.<\/p>\n

Has your passport expired? Then, get REAL ID<\/h2>\n

Those citizens whose passport<\/strong> has expired may want to get REAL ID<\/strong> instead. In the first place, it is important to gather all the necessary documents before you get your new ID. It must be a proof of identity document, like, for example:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Valid U.S. passport or passport card<\/strong> (Preferred)<\/li>\n
  • Documents reflecting TPS benefit eligibility<\/li>\n
  • Valid foreign passport stamped \u201cProcessed for I-551\u201d<\/li>\n
  • U.S. Certificate of Birth Abroad or Consular Report of Birth Abroad of U.S. Citizen<\/li>\n
  • Valid Permanent Resident Card<\/strong> with Notice of Action (I-797 C) or Approval Notice (I-797)<\/li>\n
  • Valid Employment Authorization Document (EAD) Card (I-766) or valid\/expired EAD Card with Notice of Action (I-797 C)<\/li>\n
  • Certified copy of birth certificate<\/strong> from a U.S. Territory<\/li>\n
  • Certificate of Naturalization or Certificate of U.S. Citizenship<\/li>\n
  • Foreign passport with valid U.S. Visa<\/strong> and approved I-94 form<\/li>\n
  • Valid Permanent Resident Card<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • Original or Certified copy of U.S birth certificate (issued by a city, county, or state vital statistics office). \u201cAbbreviated\u201d or \u201cAbstract\u201d certificates are NOT accepted.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Complete REAL ID online application<\/h2>\n

    Secondly, you will have to complete the application online.<\/strong> Do not forget to upload any required documents before you fill out and submit your REAL ID<\/strong> application.<\/p>\n

    If you are provided with a confirmation, save it. The last thing you will need to do is visit a REAL ID center.<\/strong> For example, it could be a DMV center. DMV<\/strong> stands for Department of Motor Vehicles.<\/p>\n

    For instance, if you live in California<\/strong>, you can visit this website to go through the whole process: https:\/\/www.dmv.ca.gov\/portal\/driver-licenses-identification-cards\/real-id\/. In Pennsylvania,<\/strong> you can use the REAL ID<\/strong> Center Locator<\/strong>: https:\/\/www.pa.gov\/agencies\/dmv\/find-a-location\/real-id-center-locations.html.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
