Real
ID
Update
Governor
Dayton’s
senior
staff
recently
met
with
Department
of
Homeland
Security
(DHS)
officials.
During
the
meeting
the
Governor’s
staff
gave
the
DHS
officials
a
letter
from
the
Governor
requesting
an
extension
as
Minnesota
works
to
comply
with
the
requirements
of
REAL
ID.
The
administration
staff
in
the
meeting
were
assured
by
DHS
officials
that
states
which
continue
to
make
progress
toward
compliance
will
be
granted
extensions.
DHS
stated,
“Given
the
current
focus
of
DHS
on
hurricane
relief
efforts,
it
is
likely
that
states
receiving
an
extension
may
not
have
it
in
writing
by
October
11,
when
the
current
extension
is
set
to
expire.
However,
DHS
has
assured
Minnesota
that
federal
agencies
will
honor
the
current
extension,
until
DHS
makes
final
extension
decisions.”
