Reports (4)
- Note field is incorrect "Changing gender is not necessarily illegal in Florida as the bill cited which was planned to make it illegal was never passed and died, however, it is still true that driver license gender can not be changed currently as the DHSMV has set a policy in place to bar gender changes on IDs."
- Status is not correct "Law has not passed yet. Proposed law does not prohibit gender changes. https://www.flsenate.gov/Session/Bill/2024/1639/?Tab=BillHistory"
- Status is not correct "Only on driver's license. It's not illegal to change your gender on your birth certificate provided you are undergoing treatment. The law is ambiguous at worst."
- Status is not correct "It is not illegal to have an id with different gender, it’s just not part of the FLDMV policy to allow replacement IDs over just a change of gender. IDs already changed prior to jan 30 are fine"
