Real ID

The Real ID licensing in Kentucky has hit some delays, but now, you can get one of the newly created Driver's Licensing Regional Offices throughout the state. And if you happen to be heading to Louisville for the state fair, which begins Thursday by the way, you will have a chance to upgrade to a Real ID on site.

The Kentucky Real ID transition has been delayed for a third time. The original rollout was scheduled for January, then it was pushed back again to March and April. What's next?

There has been a lot of stories about when the Real ID will be required in Kentucky, we now have answers thanks to a new announcement Monday by the Transportation Cabinet.

Beginning on January 22nd, federal law will require Real ID compliance to fly domestically and to visit federal facilities. Kentucky has asked for an extension beyond the January deadline and it has been granted.

The Department of Homeland Security has granted Kentucky another extension to comply with Real ID enforcement.
