If you've never had a New York State ID or Driver's License before, then you need proof of your date of birth, your Social Security Card, and 4 "points" of proof of name. If you're not eligible for Social Security, then you need 6 points of proof of name (plus proof of date of birth), and a note from the Social Security Administration explaining why you are not eligible.

Different forms of proof of name are worth a different number of points. For example, a major credit card counts as 1 point. A U.S. Passport is 4 points. A foreign passport is 3 points. A Permanent Resident Card is 3 points. A Certificate of Citizenship or Naturalization is 3 points. A Welfare card with photo is 3 points; without photo, 2 points. A U.S. college ID with photo and transcript is 2 points. A U.S. utility bill or Union card is 1 point.

You can access the complete forms explaining what you need at the Related Links below. The first is the NYS DMV homepage, the second is the page where you can download the forms.
