All Massachusetts residents who are old enough are now eligible to apply for standard driver's licenses, regardless of their immigration status.
All Massachusetts residents who are old enough are now eligible to apply for standard driver's licenses, regardless of their immigration statusMassachusetts has issued more than double the number of learner's permits in the last 10 days than this time last year, after a law went into effect July 1 allowing undocumented immigrants who live in the state to apply for driver's licenses.
Immigrants who do not have legal status in the United States will need to submit other documents -- including either a valid, unexpired foreign passport or a valid, unexpired consular identification document -- to prove their identity, date of birth and current residency. In the buildup to the July 1 implementation date, the RMV staffed up and has been translating application materials and permits. The RMV also extended its hours, open now from 8 a.m. until 6 p.m. Monday through Friday and with seven locations newly open on Saturdays for license-related matters.
Ogilvie said she could not provide a breakdown of how many of the 2,800 learner's permits issued over the last week and a half were newly-eligible undocumented immigrants.
