As the demand for Real ID credentials (also known as the Star Card) continues to grow in Canyon County, the Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) and the Canyon County Motor Vehicle (MV) office are working closely to meet community needs and alleviate the strain on neighboring counties.

To address this increasing need, ITD will provide ongoing on-site DMV support for driver’s license issuance, while the Canyon County MV office will add providing Real ID credentials to their existing services. This partnership is designed to expand access and ensure customers receive timely, high-quality service; this same approach has been successful in Ada County offices. Similar to Ada County MV offices, Canyon County MV will continue to provide Motor Vehicle services as their primary focus.

“This is a great example of local and state partners stepping up to serve Idahoans,” said Lisa McClellan, DMV Administrator. “We’re proud of the outstanding work already underway in Canyon County and excited to build on that success.”
