Secretary of State Mobile Office to visit Oakland University

Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson recently announced the Secretary of State Mobile Office will visit Oakland University for voter registration and other services on Tuesday, Sept. 10.

The Mobile Office will be open from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on the main campus outdoor mall area between North and South Foundation Halls. The visit is part of the university's Welcome Week activities as students return to campus for the fall semester.

The Mobile Office offers most services available at a regular office. Visitors can renew their license plate tabs and driver's licenses, register to vote, change their address and sign up on the Michigan Organ Donor Registry.

Visitors also can learn more about REAL ID and apply for a REAL ID-compliant driver's license or state ID card. Beginning Oct. 1, 2020, you will need a REAL ID-compliant document to fly within the United States and enter certain federal facilities, military bases and nuclear power plants. To apply, bring the following:

- Your driver's license or state ID card.

- Your certified birth certificate with a raised seal or stamp issued by a governmental agency; valid, unexpired U.S. passport; or an approved citizenship or legal presence document. (Faxes and photocopies won't be accepted.)

- If your name is different from what is on your birth certificate, bring certified documents, such as marriage licenses or court orders, for every time your name has changed.
