There is a New Military ID Card in the Neighborhood Next Generation Uniformed Services ID Card The Department of Defense is moving from its current Uniformed Services Identification (USID) card to a more secure card. The new card will be moving away from the paper and lamination process and will be printed on plastic. This will also enable the new card to incorporate some much-needed security features. As Notaries, some states allow the use of Military ID cards as a primary form of identification if it carries all the required information compliant with that states’ regulations. We all can use it in loan signing assignments as a secondary form of ID. But remember, we can never photocopy, or accept a photocopy of a military ID. The Next Generation USID card’s initial issuance began on July 31, 2020 and completed it’s phased-in implementation in December 2020. All DOD ID card facilities now issue the new card to retired and reserve members, dependent family members and other eligible persons who have access to Department of Defense bases or who need access to benefits or privileges. Currently-issued USID cards remain valid through their expiration date. Cards will not be reissued solely for the purpose of obtaining the Next Generation USID card. So we may still see some of the older versions of this ID card. Here is a peak at the new card being issued; These samples are for Retired, Reserve, Spouse. Please note the card with the color coding (Blue stripe) indicates they are a Foreign Affiliate.
