Waive ID, birth certificate fees for homeless individuals

Summary

The legislation lets homeless shelters and nonprofit case‑management agencies keep a copy of a client’s Social Security card and birth record with the client’s consent. It requires the state to waive the fee for a certified birth certificate or replacement for anyone verified as experiencing homelessness, and it sets up reporting and fee‑allocation rules for related services. The bill also outlines fee schedules for probate and vital‑records work and clarifies that no benefit can be conditioned on having an ID.
