One other tip - if you’re using a W2 to prove social security number: it must have all 9 digits and not only the last 4 with other numbers X’d out…my partner learned that the hard way. More on reddit.com

Real ID centers absolutely swamped. Temporary or new normal?
I don't think this is how it will always be, but it is going to be true for a couple weeks. You wouldn't have gone to the DMV if you didn't see the deadline, and neither would most of the other people there. But also, if you have a passport, you don't need a real ID, just show it.

All PA Drivers license centers are able to process Real ID requests, and verify the documents, the only downside is you at most will have to wait 15 days to receive it in the mail.

"Driver License Centers verify your documents, but your REAL ID will be mailed within 15 business days."

https://www.pa.gov/agencies/dmv/faqs/driver-licensing-faqs/real-id-faqs.html

So if you don't have any travel coming up within 15 days, just save yourself a couple of hours and go to a regular Driver's license center that doesnt offer same day Real ID printing, bring your documents, and they will process them, you will pay, and they will ship you your new ID.

I did this, and was in and out within an hour, a couple days later I got my real ID in the mail.

Tuesday, April 1, 2025. And no this isn’t April Fools joke. Was in and out in 50 minutes at the super center for getting my real ID done. Went just before opening and was in line by 7:22am. With doors opening at 7:30. I was walking out of there by 8:20am. Lines were getting longer but their process was quick and easy as long as you bring everything required.

If your address is staying the same as what’s currently on your license, you only need one form verifying address. If it’s changing, you need two forms. Passport cannot be expired if you’re using that.
