How long does it take to receive a non-driver's license govt. ID?

Question

I am really in a rush to receive my ID so i can go to Jamaica. Anyone know how long does it take to receive an ID from California

Answer 1

About 30 seconds.  You walk into the DMV.  You can go into anyone so if one has a long line it's often faster to go to one that is in a bad location and no one knows about.  You walk in--show your forms of id and get your picture taken.  No time at all as long as there isn't a long line and you have the right forms of id.

How are you going to Jamaica b/c they are right about checking to make sure you don't need a passport.  http://travel.state.gov

Answer 2

go to your DMV and get it, same day.

and if you are travaling on a cruise you will need a passport by Jan 2008, before that you will be fine.

Answer 3

same as a drivers license, by the way are you aware you need a passport now??  those take way longer, might need to apply now and go next summer
