Should be interesting - wonder if they’ll have to present a birth certificate, valid passport, and DD214 the way I did to renew my sixty-year-old license last June? - naw - that’d be too inconvenient for them - undue burden and all that stuff......
NJ SLOW progress on Real ID was good to get an extension. Best issue old ones to ilegals before then
Will not specify where they are lacking nor why not complete after plenty extensions. Nor improvements that allowed extension.
