Need a new Id Card for yourself or spouse?

MILITARY ID CARDS UPDATE: Homeland Security Directive 12 now requires retirees and family members seeking to renew or replace a military identification card to provide two types of ID. Retirees and family members needing identification cards must have two of the following types of current identification -- one of which must include a photo:

• Driver’s license or ID issued by a state or outlying U.S. commonwealth or possession ID card issued by federal, state or local government agencies or entities.
• School ID card with a photograph
• Voter’s registration card
• U.S. military ID card
• U.S. passport
• Certificate of U.S. citizenship
• Certificate of naturalization
For persons younger than 18, who are unable to present a document previously listed, they may bring:
• School record or report card
• Clinic, doctor or hospital record
• Day-care or nursery school record
The above listing is not all inclusive. A list of acceptable documents can be found at http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-9.pdf

If a National Guard or Reserve Organization is in your area, contact them to see if they have an ID Card department that can issue you a new or replacement ID Card and also update your DEERS information.
