Secretary of State to Offer REAL IDs and TVDL renewals at the World of Wheels

Secretary of State Alexi Giannoulias announced that Illinois residents can obtain a REAL ID or renew a Temporary Visitor Driver’s License (TVDL) at the World of Wheels Show from March 3 to March 5 at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont.

First-time TVDL applicants and applicants for REAL ID or standard driver’s licenses who must take a written or road exam are not eligible for this service because these exams are not offered at the show.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) will require a REAL ID or valid passport for domestic air travel beginning May 7, 2025.

REAL ID applicants must present original documentation, including:
• Proof of identification – U.S. birth certificate or U.S. passport
• Proof of Social Security number (SSN) – Social Security card or W-2 with full SSN displayed
• Proof of residency – Two residency documents issued within the past three months, such as a bank statement, canceled check, or utility or cable bill
• Proof of written signature – Illinois driver’s license or ID card, mortgage or loan document, or credit card

A complete list of acceptable documents is available at realid.ilsos.gov.

TVDL applicants who are renewing their TVDL at the show must present:
• Current TVDL
• Any name or address change documents

Other services at the booth include:
• Obtaining a standard driver’s license or ID card
• Renewing a vehicle registration
• Obtaining a driving record
• Registering to vote or to become an organ and tissue donor

The Secretary of State’s booth will be at the show on March 3 from 3 p.m. to 10 p.m., March 4 from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., and March 5 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
