Just a few days after expanding to Arkansas<\/a>, a new report today says Apple Wallet support for driver\u2019s licenses is set to come to yet another new state soon.<\/p>\n

Today\u2019s rumor comes from MacRumors<\/a> and cites \u201ca person familiar with the matter.\u201d According to the report, Apple Wallet driver\u2019s license support is set to expand to Virginia. There\u2019s no timetable given in the story, so it\u2019s unclear whether the rollout is imminent.<\/p>\n

Last year, the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles said<\/a> it planned to support IDs in Apple Wallet \u201cin the future,\u201d but without any further details.<\/p>\n

Virginia would mark the 15th state in which Apple Wallet\u2019s driver\u2019s license support is available, along with Puerto Rico. Here\u2019s the full list as of this week:<\/p>\n

Arizona<\/p>\n

Arkansas<\/p>\n

California<\/p>\n

Colorado<\/p>\n

Georgia<\/p>\n

Hawaii<\/p>\n

Illinois<\/p>\n

Iowa<\/p>\n

Maryland<\/p>\n

Montana<\/p>\n

New Mexico<\/p>\n

North Dakota<\/p>\n

Ohio<\/p>\n

Puerto Rico<\/p>\n

West Virginia<\/p>\n

Other states committed to supporting the feature include:<\/p>\n

Digital IDs stored in Apple Wallet can be used at TSA checkpoints at more than 250 airports. They\u2019re also supported at select venues and businesses, in person, in-app, and online.<\/p>\n

As I explained the other day, however, the state-by-state rollout isn\u2019t quite as notable as it used to be. Last year,\u00a0Apple launched<\/a>\u00a0a new Digital ID feature last year powered by your US passport. This means anyone with a passport can create a Digital ID in Apple Wallet, regardless of whether their state supports the feature<\/p>\n
