The Oklahoma Department of Public Safety received word today from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security that the state of Oklahoma has been granted a one-year extension until Oct. 10, 2016 in order to meet the requirements of the REAL-ID Act.
What this means for Oklahomans is that they will continue to be able to use their Oklahoma-issued driver license or identification card to access military bases and most federal facilities. The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) will also continue to accept valid Oklahoma Driver License and Identification cards.
DPS continues to partner with the Governor’s office and Oklahoma’s state and federal legislators in an effort to achieve a solution to REAL ID compliance.
