S118 - Military and Veteran Support Act. (SL 2025-72)

Overview: Part V. of S.L. 2025-72 (Senate Bill 118) amends statutory eligibility requirements for remote renewal of drivers licenses to provide an exception from the general requirement that the most recent prior renewal was in person for (i) active duty and reserve members of the Armed Forces of the United States who are stationed outside of this State, and (ii) the member's spouse and dependent children. The exception allows those licensees to remotely renew a second consecutive time if:

• The license being renewed is not REAL ID compliant; or
• The license is REAL ID compliant but is being converted to a non-REAL ID compliant license for purposes of the renewal.

This Part became effective October 1, 2025, and applies to licenses renewed on or after that date.
