HB 950 Missouri House · 2025 Regular Session

Allows applicants who do not have social security numbers who are citizens to instead submit an affidavit affirming citizenship when applying for a non-REAL ID complaint driver's license or nondriver's license

HB 950 allows U.S. citizens without Social Security numbers to apply for non-REAL ID-compliant driver's licenses or nondriver's licenses by submitting a sworn affidavit affirming their citizenship instead of providing a Social Security number. This change directly affects eligible citizens who lack SSNs, such as some elderly residents or individuals who never obtained one. The bill eliminates the Social Security number requirement specifically for non-REAL ID licenses, while REAL ID-compliant licenses still require SSN verification. It does not alter other application requirements or the standard process for obtaining licenses.
