Various driver's licenses provisions modifications
This bill modifies Minnesota's driver's license application requirements by expanding the list of acceptable documents to prove identity, date of birth, and name changes. It adds specific documents like REAL ID-compliant licenses, U.S. passports, certified birth certificates, immigration documents (e.g., I-551 cards), and court-ordered name change proofs (marriage certificates, divorce decrees). Applicants must now provide unaltered, legible documents from the approved list. The changes directly affect anyone applying for or renewing a Minnesota driver's license or ID card who relies on these alternative documents. The bill does not alter license revocation rules, which remain unchanged in section 171.17.
