When will i get my real id in the mail

The excitement of waiting for your Real ID!

The delivery time for your Real ID can vary depending on several factors, including:

1. Processing time: The time it takes for your state's Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to process your application and print your Real ID. This can take anywhere from a few days to several weeks.
2. Shipping method: The method used to send your Real ID to you. If you opted for expedited shipping, it may arrive faster than standard shipping.
3. Your location: The distance between your address and the DMV's location can affect the delivery time.

Here are some general guidelines:

• Processing time: Typically, it takes 2-4 weeks for your state's DMV to process your Real ID application. However, this can vary depending on the state and the workload of the DMV.
• Shipping time: If you opted for standard shipping, your Real ID may take 7-10 business days to arrive. Expedited shipping can take 2-3 business days.
• Total delivery time: Assuming standard shipping, you can expect to receive your Real ID within 9-14 business days after submitting your application. If you opted for expedited shipping, it may take 5-7 business days.

To track the status of your Real ID, you can:

1. Check your state's DMV website for updates on your application status.
2. Contact your state's DMV directly to inquire about the status of your application.
3. Check your email for updates from the DMV or the shipping carrier.

Remember to keep an eye on your mailbox and check with your local post office if you haven't received your Real ID within the expected timeframe.
