It has been a big clusterfk in New Jersey. My license was up for renewal at the end of July, In May I email the DMV to ask about RealID and when it was going to be rolled. They claimed they were going to do it in the spring. May No. June No July NO, now we are in August and no rollout for Real ID. I even signed up for them to email me when it was ready. I finally renewal by Mail, and they said if I want a Real ID when it finally rolls out I can go to the DMV with my license and they will exchange it for an additional 13 Dollars My sister suggest that I get a Passport
