I came here with a few questions a bout getting a REAL ID. It'd be great if you could answer them for me.
================
Of course. A REAL ID is optional and is not needed for being licensed to drive or voting or registering to vote, for example.
Have you decided that you do not want a REAL ID or Enhanced document?
No, I really want one.
================
I recently married and my family name has changed. What if the name on my license doesn't match the name on my proofs?
If the name on your license, permit, or non-driver ID application does not match the name on your identity, lawful status, and social security proofs you must bring in court or government issued proof documenting the event causing your name change such as a marriage license, divorce decree, adoption or court order document.
================
I thought so. And what if I have a U.S. passport?
That passport can be used for identification, boarding a plane for domestic and international flights, and entry into a federal building or military base.
================
Great. The thing is, I'm currently 17 years old. Is there something I should consider while I'm under 18 years of age?
TSA does not currently require children under 18 years old to provide identification when traveling with a companion within the United States. The companion will need acceptable identification. Please visit www.tsa.gov for more information.
