New York City officials are making it easier for immigrants to obtain a city residency identification card, which will make it easier for them to get healthcare and housing.
The New York Post reported that some of the examples of identification that immigrants can provide include an expired driver’s license; documents from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) or the Federal Bureau of Prisons; and about 100 other forms of identification to obtain an IDNYC card.

Former Mayor Bill de Blasio’s administration first introduced the city IDs in 2015 to help migrants access free healthcare, enroll in school, open accounts at banks and more. Story tips and ideas can be sent to Greg.Wehner@Fox.com and on Twitter @GregWehner.
