REAL ID

With the amount of delays and postponements in almost every aspect of our lives that we've had to deal with over the last year, why not add in one more?

It's perfectly understandable that you may have forgotten about Illinois' REAL ID while dealing with a more than a year of pandemic-related issues. I'm just here to remind you that Federal enforcement of REAL ID begins for commercial domestic air travel in just six months.

On October 1st, 2020, about 13 months from now, travelers will not be allowed to board a flight without a REAL ID, or some kind of alternative identification such as a passport.
