Proper Identification

To be admitted for testing, you must bring one form of valid, unexpired, government-issued photo identification that includes your signature. Acceptable forms of identification include:

• A valid, unexpired Driver’s License
• A valid, unexpired State-issued Identification Card
• A valid, unexpired U.S. Passport
  (Note: Foreign Passports and Passport Cards are not accepted, except as outlined below.)
• A valid, unexpired Military Identification
• Exception: A Foreign Passport that contains a valid U.S. VISA is acceptable.

Important: A Driver’s License or State-issued ID that has been voided (e.g., hole-punched) is only acceptable if accompanied by a letter issued by the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) stating that your new license is being sent to you via USPS mail. If you do not have this letter, the voided ID will not be accepted.

Name Match Requirement

The name on your credential account must exactly match the name on your identification.

• This includes first name, last name, and any suffixes (e.g., Jr., Sr., III).
• If the names do not match exactly, you will not be permitted to test.
• If your legal name has changed (e.g., due to marriage or other reasons), you must update your Credentia account and submit supporting legal documentation in advance of your exam date.

Failure to Meet Requirements

If you fail to bring an acceptable form of identification or if the name on your credential account does not match exactly with your ID:

• You will not be admitted to the examination.
• You will be marked as a No Show.
• Your examination fee will be forfeited.
• You will be required to pay again to reschedule your exam.

No exceptions will be made. Please ensure you are fully prepared on the day of your exam.
