Next Generation Uniformed Services ID Card
The Department of Defense is transitioning from its current paper-based Uniformed Services Identification (USID) card to a more secure, next-generation USID card. The Next Generation USID card will incorporate an updated design and security features to deter counterfeiting and fraud and will be printed on a plastic cardstock
Note:
Initial issuance of the Next Generation USID card will begin on July 31, 2020, at select DoD ID card facilities, with phased implementation at all DoD ID card facilities projected to be complete in December 2020.
USID cards are issued to retired and reserve members, dependent family members of Uniformed Services members, and other eligible individuals in accordance with DoD policy to facilitate access to benefits, privileges, and DoD bases. The Next Generation USID card does not change the populations who are eligible to receive the current card.
Note:
Currently-issued USID cards remain valid through their expiration date. In an effort to limit the impact on ID card issuance facilities, cards will not be reissued solely for the purpose of obtaining the Next Generation USID card.
Since the Next Generation USID card will not be available at all DoD ID card facilities until December 2020, and sites are currently operating under constrained conditions as a result of COVID-19 to keep both cardholders and operators safe, individuals with an indefinite (INDEF) expiration date on their current USID card should wait until summer 2021 to have their Next Generation USID card issued.
