It's easier to get RealID now than when you need it. I got it (needed it for my old age pension LOL) a while ago and it was lots of ferkin about so I started early.

They have real ID outside of the US?

I went with the enhanced license here in MN as it works as real ID as well as for non air travel passport use.

I think because it has limited passport functionality that it did require me to bring a bunch of different id proofs along when applying.

Ha, my mistake. Ours is much the same as yours but is called RealMe. Shows what I know, I thought ours was called RealID.

These days we need it for opening bank accounts and identifying yourself to government departments.

We don’t have enhanced drivers licences in Ontario anymore. Passport only, which I have. I needed it when I was in Florida for the month of April. I’m also heading to Europe this fall as well.

Zero plans to get one .

This wasn't a surprise. It's been the plan for at least 2 years. Got mine long ago. Can't imaging why anyone would have a problem with it.

I agree. For us, it is just a driver's license, with added security to be 100% sure it is really me, and not some fraudster. The license has neat security items that glow when a black light (UV) is shined on it. It will be a real challenge for the bad guys to make a fake version. So identity theft would be harder for the crooks.

The RealID law was enacted in 2005. So, this should not be a surprise to anyone.

I feel they same way: I am now a South Carolina resident and have a SC Real ID DL.

They didn't ask for my opinion:cool:

The young lady at the DMV showed me black light stuff. Works for me.

For no reason at all:

:rolleyes: What do you think a Passport is??? The “new world order” you’re paranoid about is over 100 yrs old by now.

So this is likely to be questioned in the near future ?

I got my real ID about 3-4 years ago.

The only issue I had was that when I applied on-line, the system said my passport and Driver's license did not match - one had last name first, and the other was the opposite. As a result, I had to go to the DMV and do this in person.

herr_oberst 05-05-2025 11:44 AM

They already know where you live.
