The
Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that
expiration dates for driver licenses, identification cards, and learner's
permits, will be extended for Pennsylvania residents in response to statewide
COVID-19 mitigation efforts.
Effective July 23, expiration dates for driver licenses, photo ID cards and
learner's permits scheduled to expire from March 16, 2020 through August 31,
2020, have been extended until August 31, 2020. These extensions are in
addition to those announcedon June 25.
A camera card is considered a driver's license, so it is covered by the same
terms and conditions extending other driver's license products. Camera cards
with expiration dates within this timeframe are also extended through August
31, 2020.
Additionally, limited services are available at some Driver License and
Photo License Centers. For a list of open driver license and photo license
centers and the services provided, as well as their hours of operation, please

Customers may continue to complete various transactions and access multiple
resources online at www.dmv.pa.gov. Driver
and vehicle online services are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week and
include driver's license, photo ID and vehicle registration renewals;
driver-history services; changes of address; driver license and vehicle
registration restoration letters; ability to pay driver license or vehicle
insurance restoration fee; driver license and photo ID duplicates; and schedule
a driver's exam. There are no additional fees for using online services.
PennDOT will continue to evaluate these processes and will communicate any
changes with the public.

There’s no way around it: the world is really scary right now. Now that Corona is sweeping the globe as a pandemic, we’re all afraid for the health of ourselves and our loved ones. People all across the world are pinching pennies to make rent and support their families. Parents are forced to put their work (and potentially income) on hold to homeschool their kids… that is if their kid is even old enough for school. If not, then they suddenly need to provide 24/7 childcare while keeping up a job. And, everyone everywhere must stay away from social situations. It’s scary. And isolating. And lonely. Yet, we have the tools at our fingertips to help each other. Even in isolation, we’re still connected.
