How do I get a state-issued ID card?

Question

I do not have a Driver's License, so I am trying to get a state-issued identification card. What is that process and what documentation will I need?

Also, does a passport qualify as a state-issued ID?

Answer 1

You will need some form of identification to prove your age and they will issue the card

Answer 2

Most states will acept a certified copy of your birth certificate or even an original  baptismal certificate as proof of age and if you present your social security card as a second form of ID you can specify you do not want that number on your new ID.  A passport is also a great document to offer when applying for the state issued card, but it does not qualify as state issued as it is technically issued by US government.

Answer 3

the requirements are usually the same as getting a drivers license, and usually issued in the same offices

Answer 4

Normally you go to the office issuing state drivers license.

Bring identification, best with a picture.

Passport great, birth certificate, Social security card, school or work ID.

Billing or mailing to your home address. Telephone, Electric, Bank statement.
