A BILL FOR AN ACT
relating to state identification cards.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF HAWAII:
SECTION 1. The purpose of this Act is to exempt individuals sixty-five years or older from the renewal process for state identification cards.
SECTION 2. Section 286-303, Hawaii Revised Statutes, is amended by amending subsection (b) to read as follows:
"(b) [Application for renewal of an
identification card issued after November 1, 1998, for an individual eighty years
of age or older may be done by mailing in or electronically submitting a
completed application and fee, if there is no change in name and citizenship
status.] The director shall adopt
rules to allow for renewal by mail or electronic methods for individuals with physical
or intellectual disabilities for whom application in person presents a serious
burden. For an individual who has a

disability causes the individual to be homebound, the director shall adopt
rules allowing for application for renewal of an identification card under this
section by means other than in-person appearance. A non-compliant identification card shall be issued in accordance with section 286-301.5 for
renewal applications not made in person."

renewal date under this section, shall be exempt from the expiration requirements
of this section; provided further that if the individual is a legal
nonimmi[]established[]] by rules of the director."
