In a year you can't go in federal buildings of take certain flights w/o it. Guess it's a hassle to go for a regular ID, then go back to the DMV if the need arises. Been ages since visiting & posting. Good to be back. Apologies if the topic's around already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I elected to get the Real ID only because if I ever needed to get on a flight I don't want to be prohibited from being able to board an airlane because of it. In fact, I wonder what happens if someone has an emergency and needs to get on a flight. Just to get an appointment is about 6 weeks away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floridah as example has been issuing them since 2010. Plus the following will work as acceptable ID: Driver's licenses or other state photo identity cards issued by Department of Motor Vehicles (or equivalent) U.S. passport U.S. passport card DHS trusted traveler cards (Global Entry, NEXUS, SENTRI, FAST) U.S. Department of Defense ID, including IDs issued to dependents Permanent resident card Border crossing card State-issued Enhanced Driver’s License Federally recognized, tribal-issued photo ID HSPD-12 PIV card Foreign government-issued passport Canadian provincial driver's license or Indian and Northern Affairs Canada card Transportation worker identification credential U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services Employment Authorization Card (I-766) U.S. Merchant Mariner Credential Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A chip? It is just the up to date State Drivers license with photo ID with a star in the corner. If you have a license you probably already have it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't have a chip, just designates that it's federal and not state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
