I am planning a trip to Florida the day after my 21st birthday. I was told that I would not receive my new license by then and that a state-issued paper ID will be attatched to my expired license. If this is true, will it be accepted as legit beyond state borders?
You have to go to the Secretary of State, as you_ll get a new picture for your license. You can go up to 45 or 60 days before your 21st birthday. When you go, you_ll have to bring your current drivers license and Social Securty Card or Passport, and they_ll verify your age and driving record and staple a paper temporary license to your current license. This expire about a month after your 21st birthday. But, as long as you make it into the SoS office well enough in advance, you_ll get your new license before your 21st birthday. I got mine 4 days before my 21st.
But if you don_t get it, the paper copy will still be valid, but it will say _Under 21 until XX/XX/2008_ on it.They only cut off a corner of your license and staple the paper one to it.
Now if you only have the paper license, that may present a problem.
It usually takes 5-10 business days to receive your license. Don_t wait until the last minute.yes it will still be accepted. that is what happened to me when i went to washington state two years ago.
so yes, it will still be accepted!
