Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

2 provisions identified: 2 benefits, 0 costs, 0 mixed.

ID fee relief for people in custody

Ohio residents under 17 in covered custody can apply for a state ID without paying the issuance fee. Covered custody includes halfway house organizations and community-based correctional facilities, including district facilities. The waived issuance fee is $3.50 for a four-year card or $6 for an eight-year card. Cardholders in these settings also qualify for fee-free duplicates, reprints, and replacements, with no age limit. The usual replacement base fee is $2.50, plus applicable service fees.

ID help for people in correctional programs

Ohio halfway houses and community-based correctional facilities, including district facilities, must try to verify residents' age and identity before successful program completion. Halfway houses must do this within a reasonable time before completion. For residents without a valid, unexpired state ID or driver's license, staff must provide an ID application. Staff must submit completed applications with a color photo and proof of age and identity. Facilities also must submit completed temporary-ID applications for people in their custody; card issuance is not guaranteed.
