The Nebraska Department of Motor Vehicles announced Ukrainian nationals can now apply for driver licenses and state identification cards as authorized by the Nebraska Legislature.
Governor Jim Pillen signed LB 138 June 1, which directs the DMV to issue credentials to persons with a parolee immigration status prior to November 1, 2023.
The bill allows all immigrants assigned a parolee immigration status to apply for the new credentials.
Applicants will need to meet the same identification, verification, and testing requirements as all others who apply for either licenses or state ID cards.
The cards will carry a distinguishing mark that indicates they are “not for federal identification”.
