(CNN) — If you've been sweating out that latest deadline for REAL ID required for US air travel, you're getting another reprieve.Over the past two years, progress has been "significantly hindered by state driver's licensing agencies having to work through the backlogs created by the pandemic," DHS said in a statement.The move toward minimum security requirements for travel documents dates back to 2005 when Congress passed the REAL ID Act, stemming from a 9/11 commission recommendation.Also, "Enhanced Driver's Licenses (EDL) issued by Washington, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, and Vermont are considered acceptable alternatives to REAL ID-compliant cards," the site said early Monday afternoon.At a minimum, DHS says you'll need to provide the following documentation showing:• Your full legal name• Date of birth• Social Security number• Two proofs of address of your principal residence• Lawful statusTop image: Airline passengers wait at TSA checkpoint to clear security at the airport terminal in Denver, Colorado."
