The Illinois Office of the Secretary of State 9ILSOS) announced this week that they have begun offering Mobile Identification Cards "Mobile IDs" which will allow Lawrence County and other Illinois drivers licenses and state identification card holders to present those items digitally.
The "Mobile IDs" would be presented through the digital wallet incorporated into the Apple iPhone or Apple Watch and can be used by an individual to prove their legal age, the same as with the use of a physical driver's license or ID card.
Proponents of the new IDs say that represent a major step forward in efforts to prevent falsifications and to help prevent illegal underage alcohol sales. More information on the "Mobile IDs" can be obtained through the Secretary of State website at illinois.gov.
