I apologize if this has already been posted. The real ID deadline has been moved out one year to October 1, 2021. Announced earlier this week and it’s also listed on the homeland security website.

Re: Real ID Deadline Postponed

I think that the "Real ID" is a joke anyway, so....

Re: Real ID Deadline Postponed

I went to get mine back in November but because I hadn't worked in over 45 years I didn't have a pay stub (they used to put it on them in the government) and I couldn't find my SSN card after the huge house fire we had.

 

But I recently found a lot of paperwork from when I worked for the government.  It shows my promotions, etc.  It all has my SSN on it.

 

Hopefully, that might take the place of my SSN card and/or pay stub.

Re: Real ID Deadline Postponed

@Anonymous032819Because?  Just curious - even though I just went ahead of completed ID way back in 2013.    Didn't want to be in the crowd that put off and end up with hours and hours of waiting which is what was happening around here.  Glad to know they added still another year to the deadline.

 

I think that makes the 4th year of extentions -  which certainly has told me a whole lot about its relative importance in the whole scheme of life!

Thanks, @bikerbabe !  I missed this postponement with everything else that's going on.

Re: Real ID Deadline Postponed

@Annabellethecat66   I don't think that information from your previous job will work.  It has to be current within a certain time period.  I didn't know where my social security card was, so I ordered a new one.  It's easy to order one online.

@Annabellethecat66 if they want certain documents they aren't going to make exceptions. 

 

Why not just go to your SS account on line and request a replacement card rather than risk being turned away and wasting time.

Re: Real ID Deadline Postponed

@NickNack  OK thanks.  Maybe I misunderstood.  So, due to my age I had to hurry up and get some kind (any kind) of pay stub.

 

So, I took all my papers (stuff) and got a new drivers license and figured I would get the star one another day.  So when I got to the counter (to get the regular one) she pulled out my papers again and said that I just needed a pay stub.

 

Most paychecks are direct deposits I think, not like I know, but I thought so.
