USPS In-Person Identity Proofing

In my state you're required to update your address, but they don't send you a new ID unless you pay for it.

So if you get pulled over and a cop runs your license it will show your new address. On the other hand the bars etc don't care they just look at DoB and expiration.

If you're purchasing a firearm though they do run the real address, and if it's not accurate you could be in trouble.

In Australia they'd just mail you a sticker to affix to the back of your license with the updated address until renewal.

That's how New Jersey IDs worked until 9/11 too.
