A new Iowa law will allow veterans to have a "veteran" designation put on their driver's license or ID card.
The Iowa Department of Transportation is implementing the law Jan. 15, nearly six months earlier than is required, to demonstrate the sate's support for its veterans.
The designation is a voluntary initiative designed to assist Iowa veterans.
"There are thousands of businesses throughout Iowa and the United States, including restaurants, hotels and even home improvement stores that give discounts to veterans. Some of those businesses require proof of veteran status. Iowa legislators responded to the veterans' needs and authorized the DOT to include veteran status on DLs and nonoperator IDs so they don't have to carry official military papers to prove their veteran status," said Iowa DOT Motor Vehicle Division Director Mark Lowe.
To get the designation, an honorably discharged veteran must present a copy of their DD 214 or applicable discharge document to their county Veterans Affairs office. That office will complete an Iowa DOT form and confirm the applicant's veteran status, which authorizes the Iowa DOT to place the designation on the individual's DL or nonoperator ID. The veteran must then take the completed form to any Iowa DL issuance location and request that the veteran designation be added to his or her DL or nonoperator ID card.
