Notice of ID Requirements
Effective immediately, DEERS/RAPIDS will no longer allow ID cards to be issued without a primary form (non-expired photo ID) and secondary form of ID scanned into the DEERS file. This is an effort to bring all files to compliance with DEERS policy. Members presenting themselves for any ID card issuances without two forms of proper ID, will be denied service until proper identification can be presented.
CACs are no longer accepted as either primary or secondary ID.

SAAR and Digital Signatures

However, we are authorized to put a default email on the CAC, allowing the user to digitally sign forms. This is an ISC/Organizational Network Administrator function. For further assistance beyond the Network Administrator call the Enterprise Help Desk 855-373-8762.
Security and Entry Access
IAW with C4I and HQMC Project Officers policy, we do not maintain door access issuance of any CAC or blank card. This information is completed by the Unit Security Manager, not the DEERS/ID Card Center. We do not provide door access or security access for any buildings and do not handle RFI issues.
CACs will not be reissued due to physical building or room access issues. We will test the technology on the card and if functional, the CAC will not be replaced. Contact your physical security manager to request EPAC software update.
Sponsor Unavailable
If the sponsor is not able to come in with a dependent to update an ID card, please utilize the DS Logon (The Department of Defense Self-Service Logon) or ID Card Office Online. The following brochures are available to assist you in using it. With either of these services, you can complete the DD-Form 1172-2 and digitally sign it. This form is required each time a family member gets an ID card. For initial enrollments, spouse must have a Power of Attorney.

Using State Driver's License as an identity document
When issuing DoD ID cards to customers, we are required to enter an expiration date for most identity documents in RAPIDS.
Active-duty Service members and their eligible dependents may present a state driver's license with no expiration date. If the expiration date of a state driver's license is blank or displays ''military,'' the VO is required to enter the following as the expiration date of the driver's license:
The expiration date of the DoD ID card being issued, or
Up to three years from the current date (whichever is sooner).
DMDC will no longer allow DEERS/RAPIDS Sites to utilize an EXPIRED State Driver’s License as an identity document. The extension issued for an expired driver’s license is for driving privileges ONLY. It does not apply to identity documentation.
When using a state driver’s license as a form of acceptable identification, a PHOTO IS REQUIRED. If you have renewed your license and only have the paper copy without a photo, it can no longer be accepted unless you present your expired license at the same time.
REMEMBER, THE DEPENDENT ID CARD IS A PRIVILEGE CARD. At no time can a dependent receive an id card without proper identification or documentation.
To help us serve you better, please make sure you have everything you need prior to your visit.
