28 June Residents of New York will need a REAL ID or Enhanced ID to board an airplane starting May 7, 2025 June 28, 2023 By Danyelle Barrett General 0 New York residents will need an enhanced driver’s license or a REAL ID compatible driver’s license by May 7, 2025, if they want to use it to get on a domestic flight, enter certain federal buildings, or enter military bases. With that in mind, it is highly recommended that New Yorkers who plan to travel upgrade from a standard driver’s license to a REAL ID or enhanced license. Get it sooner, rather than later. A New York’s REAL ID driver’s license has a star in the upper right corner to indicate that it meets federal regulations that establish minimum security standards. The enhanced driver’s license has a U.S. flag on the bottom right of the license. For more information and details about how to obtain a REAL ID driver's license or identification card in New York, and to determine which form of ID is right for you, visit the New York State DMV website. You can also visit the TSA website for more detailed information about traveling with a REAL ID.

New York State adopted the Transfer on Death Deed A Transfer on Death Deed (TOD) is a legal document that allows a property owner to designate who will inherit their real estate after they die. TODs are a cost-effective way to pass on property because they bypass probate, the process that wills go through. NYS has introduced Section 424 of the New York State Real Property Law. Here are some things to know about TODs: How it works The property owner, also known as the transferor, fills out a TOD form, signs it in front of witnesses, and has a notary public acknowledge the signature. The completed deed is then recorded at the county clerk's office. Who can be a beneficiary A beneficiary can be an individual, an organization, or a charity. If there are multiple beneficiaries, the transferor can indicate how they will take title. What the owner retains The owner retains full control of the property while they're alive. They can sell, mortgage, or revoke the TOD deed at any time.
