All honorably discharged veterans of every era will be able to get a photo identification card from the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) starting in November due to a law passed in 2015. The law orders the VA to issue a hard-copy photo ID to any honorably discharged veteran who applies. The card must contain the veteran's name, photo and a non-Social Security identification number. Veterans may apply for the card online, but a timeline for how long it will take to receive a card after application has not been finalized. For more information, read the article Military.com.
