Act Now: Real ID deadline is May 7

  • The Department of Homeland Security will enforce the Real ID mandate on May 7, requiring compliant identification for air travel and federal facilities.
  • Congress passed the Real ID Act in 2005 following the 9/11 Commission's recommendation to enhance security standards for identification.
  • Service Oklahoma is expanding hours at select locations, including Tulsa's Eastgate Metroplex, to assist people in obtaining Real IDs before the deadline.
  • Diedra O'Neil of Service Oklahoma stated, "We know life doesn’t always fit into a 9-to-5 schedule," explaining the need for extended hours.
  • After May 7, people without a Real ID or other federal ID like a passport may face travel and access restrictions, though full DHS enforcement is expected by 2027.
