What documents do I need to bring for a Real ID?
To obtain a Real ID in Maine, you must provide specific documents as proof of identity, residency, and citizenship or lawful status. You will need the following documents:
1. Proof of identity: Bring an unexpired, valid U.S. passport, certified copy of your birth certificate, or an unexpired, lawful permanent resident card.
2. Proof of residency: Provide two documents that demonstrate your Maine residency, such as a utility bill, lease agreement, or bank statement with your current address.
3. Social Security Number: Show your Social Security card or a W-2 form displaying your full SSN.
4. Citizenship or lawful status proof: If you are not a U.S. citizen, carry your immigration document, work permit, or other approved documentation indicating legal status.
Remember to bring original versions or certified copies of these documents. Photocopies, digital forms, and expired documents will not be accepted. Ensure your documents meet these requirements to obtain your Real ID smoothly.
