A 9277 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to fees for non-driver identification cards

This bill waives fees for non-driver identification cards for three specific groups: incarcerated individuals, crime victims needing replacement cards lost in crimes, and people with incomes below 200% of the federal poverty line. To qualify for the income-based waiver, applicants must provide proof like tax returns, employer letters, or wage statements from the previous year. The bill directly affects low-income residents, formerly incarcerated people, and crime victims who need identification cards but cannot afford standard fees. It modifies existing law to expand fee exemptions without creating new government programs or altering other ID requirements.
