A friend went in today. His SS number came back as belonging to another person in another state. (ID theft - could be?)
How many bogus SS numbers are floating around out there?
was this his number?

i have a friend trying to get her drivers license renewed. You now need your SOCIAL SECURITY card to do so. Along with other crap.
Now i am wondering exactly where my SS card, issued in 1968, is right now? Just a heads up...go find yours ahead of time
A friend went in today. His SS number came back as belonging to another person in another state. (ID theft - could be?) The point is, the RMV employee then hits a few keys and says, "you're all set, but this may happen again when you renew"??? WTF!!! Here's a guy who doesn't match is SS number, and the RMV says "it's OK, it happens all the time"????? HUH??
If they're OKaying some of these new licenses without the necessary verification that's supposed to represent what a "REAL ID" is. How is this system, that the RMV has no ability, or desire to correct supposed to "weed out" the....well, weed out the people the whole program is trying to intercept??

Meaning Real ID? it is not federal and Real ID compliance itself does nothing to link state systems together. It just has to do with providing the documentation to prove you are you and are supposed to be here.
Sharing between states is starting to happen, but is unrelated to Real ID compliance. AAMVA has had some data sharing for a few years now, but states are now starting to share directly, real time, with more states joining each year.

“We demand 100 percent safe operations in aviation, marine, pipeline, rail and transit, we should cultivate a corresponding societal demand for safe roads,” said NSC President and CEO Deborah A.P. Hersman. “With these three guidelines, everyone can do something to reduce fatalities on the roadway. Getting to zero fatalities is not impossible – it just hasn’t been done yet.”
I lucked out, my DL was due to expire in 3 weeks, but I was able to renew it online before the 26th
cut off date. Passed on getting a "Real ID". I haven't flown in 30 years, and I don't intend to for
the longterm foreseeable future.
As do I.....and they will as its real id compliant
Funny how no one in the thread is discussing to any significant degree the DOWNSIDE of what is effectively now a federal ID requirement.....especially wrt banking/money and a pile of other things that the fed gov shouldnt be involved in.
If the fed gov were to do its constitutional job and control the damn borders then this BS with ID's would be unnecessary
I'm trying to renew my license right now - and it's not letting me. I selected the no Real ID option, and then it just tries to shove me into giving up my passport or birth certificate information for my "proof of lawful presence".
I don't have a passport , and I don't have a birth certificate with a number on it. I've got a stamped birth certificate , but the thing is from like 40 years ago, so it doesn't have any sort of ID# on it.
I don't need a passport - and I couldn't get one anyway in time to renew the license (expires end of May), so that's not even an option.
WTF.
It is very easy..... Call town hall where you were born. Ask how. They will want a fee possibly as much as $15 plus a SASE envelope to mail it to you. Or go in person. Amazingly they just give these things out without any ID or anything. So if you want to become someone else, now is your chance.
I took my daughter for her learners permit a couple of weeks ago. They didn't want the birth certificate. SS Card, passport, signed affidavit, school id, a copy of my DL and we were done.
Oh, and definitely fill the paperwork out first on-line before you go if you can. For license renewals if you are a triple A member you can go to a triple A office that has a mini registry that usually renew licenses and registrations for AAA Members. The Westwood Office provides these services. Daughter was a permit and they do not do permits at triple A.
FIFY.The f***ing government just made my life harder.
FIFY.
I renewed yesterday in NH. It took a full hour, but only because the DMV is a 50 minute round trip.
As on my initial license, I opted out of them retaining SSN or photo; this time, I also got to opt out of the REAL ID-compliant option.
I received zero push-back, just a gentle reminder that if I needed a replacement, I would have to present two forms of ID.

The "proof" documents to get either version of the drivers license appear to be the same.
Since you cannot renew a RealID online and you can (at least half the time) a regular license, then assuming you have a passport or passport card to cover those situations where you DO need RealID . . .
You're better off getting the regular license.
I wonder... is this a "Get Out of Jury Duty Free" card? Not having RealID, I mean...?
No. It will be a matter of time until they uncover a bribery scheme where people were getting Real ID by paying someone off, or because person(s) checking docs are SJWs.
