If state laws stop a person from getting a ID are they guilty of identity theft.?

Question

No state will give me an ID for reasons ranging from cannot get the info they want to not being able to prove residensey. Every thing they want takes an ID to get.

Answer 1

How are they guilty of identity theft if there is no identity to steal?! It seems like you're in a classic Catch-22: You need to get an ID, but it requires an ID to prove who you are, just to get an ID! Do you have a birth certificate? You can prove residency if you have a utility bill or bank account at your current address. How old are you? Usually this situation becomes an issue if you're older without an ID.

Some states will give a homeless person a driver's license. Just tell them you live under the 6th street bridge. As for the documentation, you might try your local social services office for advice. Or your state employment agency. There is a federally funded program to get disabled people whatever they need to get a job, such as medical treatment, ID's, etc. Check with your state's Department of Vocational Rehabilitation, which is probably a division of the labor or employment department.

I am going to have that problem when the new Real ID Act goes into effect. My birth certificate was issued by the US government during WWII. It doesn't have a state seal -- or any kind of seal. In fact, it doesn't even list my middle name or my parents first and middle names -- just initials. The new act says I must have a state issued ID. I don't know where I was born. My father was in the Air Force at that time fighting for this country. My parents died years ago and they were both the youngest in their families, so my aunts and uncles are gone too. I am the oldest child, so my brothers and sisters were born after me. I can't ask them. I tried ordering a duplicate birth certificate from the state I think I was born in. They asked for my ID. Well, I have that "US Certificate of Birth Registration." And I have an expired driver's license. (My license expired due to cataracts. I foolishly didn't pay for an ID. However, I did have the cataract surgery. Now I can't get a driver's license.) Well, back to the birth certificate issue. the state authorities tell me that I must either get my expired drivers license renewed or get a US passport. But to get either, under recently enacted laws, I need a birth certificate.

Up until recently, my US birth certificate was fine. When I was 15, I didn't need a birth certificate to get a driver's license. I needed EITHER a birth certificate (hospital issued certificate with little footprints would have been fine) OR a baptismal certificate, OR my parent's signature. My father got me my learner's permit as a birthday present. Later I turned that in for a driver's license, and every few years after that, I turned in the old license for a new one.

I bet there are a lot of people like us. Even if we broke no law, have 20-20 vision, have spotless driving records, are US citizens, etc. etc. we will be denied a right to drive.

I don't want that new ID anyway. They are going to put all your personal information on it -- name, address, birthdate, social security number, etc. -- and than SHARE that information with other states, foreign governments, retailers, etc. The first retailers to likely get the information will likely be liquor stores, gun shops, pawn shops, casinos, bars..... Do you want these people to have your personal info?

If you do figure a way to get that ID, get it quickly -- before the new ID's are issued.
