For a first Wisconsin ID card, visit a DMV customer service center and complete form MV3004. Bring proof of name and date of birth, proof of identity, proof of Wisconsin residency, proof of U.S. citizenship or legal status, and your Social Security number. The DMV lists acceptable documents for each category on linked pages, so check them before you go. To change your address, WisDOT says to notify it within 10 days of moving, online or by mail with form MV3058. Changing your address does not send a new card; apply for a replacement online or at a DMV center to get one showing the new address. Online services can be unavailable at times, so check the site first. This is a statewide process.
