Like you I renewed my license last year and may just wait until I have to renew it again as I do have a passport.

What I find really odd about the whole scam is that it's easier to get a passport (more expensive, but it's good for 10 years) than the stupid license and the passport is just fine for flying. I guess if you're driving into Canada or Mexico you can just use the real ID so it might make sense if you live near one of the borders otherwise, I just don't understand the point.

Don't know what the requirements are in Minnesota, PoindexterOglethorpe May 2019 #6

In Minnesota you can bring a W2 form to prove your SS#. nt dflprincess May 2019 #8

My problem is that I don't think they should have my SS# at all. PoindexterOglethorpe May 2019 #9

You need like a utility bill or cable or cell phone bill and then a w2, so it is not "questions" Eliot Rosewater Aug 2021 #11
