I am 17 years old, but I don't drive. How can I get an ID?
Find answers to your legal question.





I am 17 years old, but I don't drive. How can I get an ID?

I do NOT want a fake id. I have a debit card for my bank account and I work, but I have no ID. For instance, I went to Walmart to buy a game rated Mature, but because I don't have ID, she couldn't sell it to me.

I live in Pennsylvania if that matters. Is there anyway to get an ID that like has my age on it or something? I don't want a driver's licence/permit or fake id.

If no one knows, can you direct me to the correct category to ask this question in? Thanks!

Get a Pennsylvania identification card- Good for 4 years at a time. Or get a US passport

Cost for the State ID is $10.00

Simply go to your local DEPARTMENT of MOTOR VEHICLES (D.M.V.) and tell them that you want a STATE I.D. CARD issued to you, NOT an Operator's License.

Go to the motor vechicle department in your town and ask for a state ID. Its not a licence but just a regular ID that everyone will accept. might cost you between 5-20 bucks.

Obtain your state's DMV ID card.

Go to the dept of motor vehicles and asked for a state identification card. It looks similar to a drivers license but its not an operators' license.

You can get a state ID. Before you do, consider that you CAN'T keep the state ID if you chose to get a driver's permit. You could also get a US Passport. That is legal proof of ID and citizenship. It may not qualify for some purposes you could use a driver's license or state ID. For example, when voting, you may need an ID that proves residence in your precinct. A Passport does NOT prove residency.

The DMV issues State IDs

State ID's are issued by the State DMV's. You will need documentation to get one. Things like birth certificate, proof of residency at the said address, etc. For a list of req. documents contact a driver's license office near you.

Go to the DMV they issue Id's also. You'll need to bring your social security card and birth certificate. Then you fill out a paper and pay like $10-$15, get you pict taken and your done.

You can get a type of license at your department of motor vehicles that doesn't let you drive, it just serves the purpose of identifying yourself.

Your state government will issue an official ID card to you, usually from the DMV (MVD) office. You will need all the same prrof of age and residence (utility bill -- in parents name will work) that you need for the regular drivers license. Get it now, before new immigration laws complicate the process.

yeah, it's really simple. You go to your local DMV, the place that issues the permits and stuff, but you ask someone there to give you the application to apply for an ID. It's completely different from getting a permit or liscense, so dont worry, its not the same thing. And anways, they take ur picture and you'll probably need to show ur social security # and ur birth certificate, but other than that, it's really easy to get an ID. Hope this helps.


beatlesrandomzeppelin
Yeah, it's like 10 bucks for a state ID. I live in PA too and i checked it out at the website. Make sure you have everything with you, because all the stories about the DMV being a hell hole are true.
