REAL ID deadline is coming. How to get one in Oregon and why you shouldn’t delay

Oregonians will soon need to meet federal security standards and get a REAL ID by May 7, 2025 if they want to fly domestically.

Here’s how to get a REAL ID, why they are required and why you should make plans to get one soon.

What is a REAL ID?

A REAL ID is a state-issued driver’s license, permit or ID card that meets federal security standards, according to a press release from the Oregon Department of Transportation.

An Oregon REAL ID has a star inside a black circle on the upper right corner of the card. Renewing identification without opting for a REAL ID will show “Not for REAL ID Act” in the upper right corner.

Why will REAL IDs be required?

In 2005, Congress passed the REAL ID Act in response to the 9/11 Commission’s recommendation to improve protection and “establish minimum security standards for state-issued driver’s licenses and identification cards,” according to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

Can I still fly after May 7, 2025 if I don’t get a REAL ID?

No. Past the May deadline, any person 18 years or older without a REAL ID, passport, passport card or military ID won’t be able to board domestic flights.

Chris Crabb, public information officer for the Oregon Department of Motor Vehicles, said 51% of Oregonians have their passport.

REAL IDs cannot be used as a passport alternative to board foreign flights, and Oregonians will still be able to legally drive, vote or prove their identity without a REAL ID.

How to get a REAL ID in Oregon?

Oregonians can get a REAL ID at any DMV office by walk-in or appointment. Applicants must bring documents that prove their identity, date of birth, social security number, two different proofs of address and lawful status in the United States.

There will be an up to 20-day wait period before the REAL ID arrives in the mail after completing the application.

How much does a REAL ID cost in Oregon?

REAL IDs cost $30 each time you apply, and that fee comes in addition to the regular costs for an original, renewal or replacement of a standard Oregon driver’s license, permit or ID card. Getting a REAL ID does not change the expiration date on your card.

An original standard driver’s license costs $64, an ID card costs $47 and a permit is $30.

Renewal of a standard driver’s license costs $54, an ID card costs $43 and a permit is $26.

Replacement of a standard driver’s license costs $30, an ID card costs $40 and a permit is $30.

Why should I make plans to get a REAL ID in Oregon ASAP?

Crabb said the DMV is expecting an influx of REAL ID seekers toward the deadline, so they’re hoping people can make the switch as soon as possible.

Since the option became available in 2020, one-third of the state’s license, instruction permit or identification card holders have opted to switch to a REAL ID — a little over a million people, according to the Oregon Department of Transportation.

Applicants who show up two weeks before the deadline might not receive the REAL ID in time if they are traveling close to the deadline, she said. Temporary paper cards will not be accepted.

“The sooner you get it, the less you’ll probably have to wait,” Crabb said.

Advocates report man hospitalized after apparent ICE arrest in Salem

Advocates report man hospitalized after apparent ICE arrest in Salem

One man in Salem was sent to the hospital Dec. 7 after U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents attempted to arrest him, according to the coalition Oregon for All.

A video posted on social media shows four masked agents dragging a man in handcuffs toward the back of a white Ford SUV at the parking lot of the Salem Mega Foods around 10 a.m. Another masked agent stands nearby.

An image shared by the coalition shows the shattered window of a car they said belonged to the man.

Other videos later show the man being tended to by first responders.

It was not immediately clear how the man was injured. The man was transported to Salem Health hospital.

Oregon for All said the man lived in the United States for nearly 20 years, is married to a U.S. Citizen, and is the father of one child.

Federal agents were observed in the hospital parking lot for hours. Volunteers later said they observed at least two agents walking into the hospital.

Cristina Marquez, one of the observers, said she was concerned people would be less likely to go to the hospital in emergencies with the knowledge that ICE was at the hospital for an extended period of time.

Salem Health did not immediately respond to a request for comment from the Statesman Journal.

The City of Salem declared a state of emergency on Dec. 1 related to increased ICE activity in the region. ICE detained at least four people in Salem that same day. Federal agents arrested at least 24 people in Salem in a single day on Nov. 11.

The U.S Department of Homeland Security did not immediately respond to a Statesman Journal request for comment.

How to Watch Oregon Ducks Women’s Basketball vs. UCLA Bruins

How to Watch Oregon Ducks Women’s Basketball vs. UCLA Bruins

The undefeated Oregon Ducks women’s basketball team is preparing for their first Big Ten contest of the season, traveling south to Westwood to take on No. 4 UCLA. The Ducks are fresh off a rivalry win over Oregon State that saw their record improve to 10-0.

How to Watch Oregon vs. UCLA

When: Sunday, Dec. 7, at 12:00 p.m. PST

Where: Pauley Pavilion, Los Angeles, California

TV Broadcast: Fox Sports, Fox One, Fubo

Radio Broadcast: Oregon Sports Network

Prediction: UCLA defeats Oregon Ducks 91-82.

It is naive to think a team can go an entire season unbeaten, and as good as the Ducks have looked, UCLA has demonstrated they are a powerhouse in women’s basketball this season.

The Bruins’ only loss of the season has come to No. 2 Texas in late November, and the Bruins defeated No. 19 Tennessee 99-77 a week ago. Oregon keeps this one respectable and may even have the lead at points, but the Bruins will be able to dominate the boards and capitalize on second-chance points at home.

Ducks Will Need Big Performances From Star Players

The Ducks will hope that guards Katie Fiso and Elisa Mevius continue their run of good form, and that forward Mia Jacobs can put together double-digit points on the stat sheet once again. Fiso had 23 points on 9/11 shooting from the floor in the Ducks’ last game against Oregon State.

The Ducks shot an astonishing 80 percent from beyond the arc in the game against the Beavers, and if they can shoot just half of that against UCLA, they’ll put themselves in a good position to be in the game down the stretch.

A big key to the game will be the fundamentals: rebounding and free throws. The Ducks lacked in both departments despite winning against Oregon State. The Beavers out-rebounded the Ducks 25-23, and also shot better from the free-throw line. The Ducks shot just 60 percent from the charity stripe and allowed the Beavers to collect 14 offensive rebounds.

Oregon Will Have To Slow Down High Flying Bruins

The biggest test for Oregon will be slowing down the UCLA offense. The Bruins boast arguably the best offense in the country, and Gabriela Jaquez is a big reason why. Jaquez was 5-6 from beyond the arc in the Bruins’ win against Tennessee, and Guard Kiki Rice had 20 points while reeling in 11 rebounds.

The Bruins are also able to get production off the bench. Forward Angela Dugalic put together a performance against Tennessee that included 14 points, six rebounds, three steals, and two assists. This Big Ten showdown will be a great litmus test for the Ducks that will give fans a clearer idea of just how close Oregon is to competing for a national championship.
