What's the big deal? Just get an ID made. They should have simple ID cards, basically like a driver's license but without allowing you to drive. While you are at it, why not get a passport? I am not sure whether the new passports already contain the chip and biometric data. If not, then I'd get one before they make this a requirement. When they make it a requirement, the old ones will probably still be valid for some time. The new ones will be more expensive and more intrusive from a civil rights perspective. So it would be good to get a passport asap IF they have not yet instituted the above changes.
