Family Members (Age 21-23)
Here are the necessary procedures to follow to obtain an ID card for a child over the age of 21:
- Unmarried children 21 or 22 years of age (must not have attained the age of 23)
- Enrolled as a full time student in an accredited institution of higher learning
- Dependent on sponsor for over 50% of their support (or were at the time of the sponsor’s death)
If enrolled in DEERS, a letter from the school registrar or National Student Clearinghouse Web Application certifying full-time course of study leading to an associate’s degree or higher as of 21st birth date from an accredited institution, enrollments date, and anticipated graduation date.
Note: Extension of eligibility must be done within 30 days after 21st birthday to prevent a break in medical coverage, if completed after 30 days then the effective date of coverage is the date the sponsor arrives at the ID Card facility to update the child as a full-time student NOT the date the child enrolled in college.
