    Colorado approves and expedites the issuance of driver’s licenses for undocumented individuals

    While Colorado already allows undocumented immigrants to obtain driver’s licenses, they must live in the state for at least two years before qualifying.

    Now, the landscape would change, after the Colorado legislature approved bill SB24-182, which reduces the waiting time for undocumented individuals to receive a driver’s license and streamlines the process by eliminating the need to present tax returns for the previous two years.

    The SB24-182 bill, pushed by state Senator Julie Gonzales and state Representative Tim Hernández (both Democrats), categorizes driver’s licenses as “identity documents for immigrants,” so undocumented individuals no longer have to prove they have lived in Colorado for two years or have a tax identification number.

    Together, these changes allow even newcomers to “immediately access” driver’s licenses, stated Representative Hernández on Tuesday shortly after the final vote in favor of the measure.

    Moreover, contrary to what was happening until now, a passport or consular identification card is no longer the only accepted identity document for the process. From now on, identity cards or driver’s licenses issued in the immigrant’s country of origin are also accepted.

    Applicants would still need to pass a written exam, a vision test, and a driving test and pay a fee, according to the Colorado Immigrant Rights Coalition.
