You do not have to show an SSN card, but you must know your Social Security number so the Motor Vehicle Division can verify it electronically through the SSOLV system at your appointment. As of 2026-06-30 the agency publishes no SSA letter-of-ineligibility alternative; if you were never issued an SSN, confirm options with MVD directly.","question":"Can I get a driver license in Montana without an SSN card?"},{"answer":"A non-driver Montana Identification Card costs 17.00 dollars and is valid 8 years; a replacement is 10.30 dollars. ID cards must be obtained in person at an MVD Driver Exam Station — mail-in processing is not available (as of 2026-06-30).","question":"How much does a Montana state ID card cost and how long is it valid?"},{"answer":"Yes. Under Montana law (MCA 61-5-111), a license or ID issued to a foreign national whose U.S. presence is temporarily authorized expires no later than the expiration date of the USCIS document authorizing that presence. Lawful permanent residents are not treated as temporary and receive the standard term.","question":"Will my Montana license expire when my immigration document expires?"},{"answer":"No. A consular ID (matricula consular) does not appear on Montana’s accepted identity or authorized-presence document lists, so MVD will not accept it for a driver license or state ID (as of 2026-06-30).","question":"Is a matricula consular accepted for a Montana license or ID?"}],"generated":"2026-06-30","isBasedOn":"https://mvdmt.gov/required-documents/","language":"en","license":"https://migrantusa.com/terms/","name":"Montana driver license + state ID — without SSN options for immigrants","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"MigrantUSA","url":"https://migrantusa.com/"},"source_urls":["https://mvdmt.gov/required-documents/","https://mvdmt.gov/real-id/","https://mvdmt.gov/id-card/","https://mvdmt.gov/licensing-fees/","https://mvdmt.gov/citizenship-marker/","https://mca.legmt.gov/bills/mca/title_0610/chapter_0050/part_0010/section_0110/0610-0050-0010-0110.html"],"state":"Montana","type":"dmv-state","url":"https://migrantusa.com/dmv/state-id-by-state/montana/"}
