With the deadline for real identifications that are quickly approaching, many Americans are struggling to reserve appointments to obtain the new documentation, especially in the state of New Jersey.
As of May 7, air travelers in national airports and people entering some federal buildings must have what is known as a real identification.
On Monday in the state of Garden, the website of the Motorized Vehicle Department (NJDMV) showed “0 Aviable quotes” for real identification services on its site.
However, there were 13,243 appointments available for non -conductive identifications, 34,155 open appointments to transfer driver’s licenses from outside the State and 51,809 available renewal appointments.
If a driver’s license falls within the renewal period, the person can reserve a renovation appointment to update real identification, and there are 51,809 appointments available.
Fox News Digital contacted Governor Phil Murphy’s office to comment.
“As seen in the states throughout the country, the real identification demand is now extraordinarily high before the start of the federal application in May,” said the NJDMV automated voice service on Monday.
The department says that 3,000 new appointments are added for real identification updates every business day from 7 am
“The next compliance date is more relevant to those new Jerseayanes who plan to fly nationwide in the short term and do not have a form of identification that meets the Federal Real Ideal Cañas,” the automated voice said on Monday.
Until Monday, the NJDMW had issued 1,381,916 licenses and real ID identifications, a spokesman told Fox Digital.
“The NJMVC is processing record numbers of inpersonal transactions, especially real ID, and we continue to evaluate our operations and capacity every week, seeking to add so many appointments for a real possible identification,” added the spokesman.
Valid passports can be used as an alternative to the approach to national flights and enter federal facilities.
The processing time for an accelerated passport is two to three weeks with additional rates, agreed to the website of the State Department.
For Americans who do not have a passport and cannot obtain a DMV appointment in time, AAA selected branches offer a real identification service.
An AAA spokesman told Fox News Digital that real identification services vary throughout the country and are available in six states, with New Jersey not included in that list.
“Some AAA branches that are sacrificed for services can also issue real identifications. We recommend calling the AAA branch in its local area to determine if these services are greedy,” said the spokesman.
The spokesman added: “The process is the same as in the DMV. However, there may be greater access to appointments in AAA branches. It also varies according to the location, but in some cases, these services are only available for AAA members.”
Two residential management tests, a social security number test and six identification points in the appointments are required.
Some New Jersey residents touch social networks to share their frustration for trying to obtain a real identification appointment.
“No one in New Jersey can get an appointment for real identification,” a user published in X.
A user said: “Only for the course for NJ. There are no real identification quotes. Obtain the Times, NJ.”
Another user published: “Why not only use the 5,000 appointments they have for license renovations for real identification applications?”
“In NJ, you can’t get a real identification for more than 3 [months]So you should get a passport if you don’t have one not defeated, “said an user X.
“I am sporadically reviewing the NJ MVC website for real identification quotes in recent months, and not once I have seen an open appointment, hahaha,” said another user. So how “is I supposed to get one?”
“The deadline to obtain real identification is next month, and there are no warning appointments throughout the state of NJ, Lolol,” another user published.
