More information on Election Identification Certificates is available at this link:
www.dps.texas.gov/DriverLicense/electionID.htm
Most residents already have an acceptable form of photo identification needed for voting and will not need or qualify for an EIC.
If you do not have any of the following acceptable forms of ID, beginning last June 26, 2013, you may apply for an Election Identification Certificate (EIC) at no charge.
If an applicant already has any of the following documents, they are not eligible to receive an EIC: •Texas driver license – unexpired or expired less than 60 days at the time of voting
•Texas personal identification card – unexpired or expired less than 60 days at the time of voting
•U.S. passport book or card – unexpired or expired less than 60 days at the time of voting
•Texas concealed handgun license – unexpired or expired less than 60 days at the time of voting
•U.S. Military identification with photo – unexpired or expired less than 60 days at the time of voting
•U.S. Citizenship Certificate or Certificate of Naturalization with photo
To apply for an EIC, applicants must visit a driver license office or one of these mobile stations and complete an Application for Texas Election Certificate (DL-14C).
To qualify for an EIC, an applicant must: •Bring documentation to the office to verify U.S. citizenship
•Bring documentation to the office to verify Identity
•Be eligible to vote in Texas (Bring a valid voter registration card or submit a voter registration application through the Texas Department of Public Safety at the office)
•Be a Texas resident
•Be 17 years and 10 months or older
