Real ID
« on: April 27, 2021, 02:34:45 PM »
DHS will delay a requirement for air travelers to have Real ID-compliant forms of ID, pushing it back tto May 3, 2023 due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Only 43% of Americans are currently REAL ID compliant, according to DHS officials. About 119 million of the 274 million state-issued Driver’s licenses and IDs meet the stringent security requirements passed under The Real ID Act in the wake of 9/11.

Will they ever actually implement this?

Post in the right thread, please. This thread is superfluous and should be deleted.

To answer your question, you don't technically need an ID for domestic flights, can get asked validation questions and get on. Or say under 18 if that's your game.

I need to renew my license, should I get the REAL ID? I really don't want to have to shlep to the DMV.

According to @Dan the requirement will be pushed off indefinitely and maybe our grandkids will have to worry about it. Either way, the only advantage is not needing to bring a passport to fly domestically?
If it's not free shipping it's not worth it.

Or GE card. Just have in mind that needing to bring a passport for domestic travel is a major inconvenience.

I thought there is a visa agreement between Ohio and the US?
