i assume this might have been one DMV worker making a mistake? similar to TSA and airline reps, my family's experiences have been hit or miss. I'm 22, got my license renewed when I turned 21. had an eye exam. asked if i was a citizen. accepted school ID and SS card as ID (wanted to keep my old ID). mom goes, no eye exam (some kind of reverse age discrimination?) no citizenship question. however, not allowed to change her name on her DL from firstname lastname to firstname madien-lastname, because no court order showing change of name. however, she had her PASSPORT and SS card showing as such...

Not that it matters because evidently the WA DMV won't take a lease/rental agreement as proof of residence. The documentation list leans heavily in favor of homeowners (mortgage papers, land tax receipts etc)
that makes no sense (not that I need to tell you that). what do they do if you're a kid living with your parents?
