The looming REAL ID deadline already delayed twice is getting another major pushback, giving Americans an additional 24 months to become complaint, the Department of Homeland Security announced Monday.
The looming REAL ID deadline already delayed twice is getting another major pushback, giving Americans an additional 24 months to become compliant, the Department of Homeland Security announced Monday.
Delays stemming from the pandemic initially prompted the DHS to postpone the enforcement date back one year to Oct. 1, 2021, before moving that deadline once again to May 2, 2023. The pandemic has significantly impacted states’ ability to issue REAL ID-compliant driver’s licenses and identification cards.
“This extension will give states needed time to ensure their residents can obtain a REAL ID-compliant license or identification card. DHS will also use this time to implement innovations to make the process more efficient and accessible," DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said. REAl ID compliant cards are issued after a more thorough verification of an applicant's identification and incorporates new security features that make them harder to counterfeit.
