I just wonder what would happen if he went, deed and/or paperwork in hand, with you to the same place he got his ID issued, and explained the situation with you not being on the deed. I would bet, if the right person was on duty, you would get your permanent ID without any trouble. You don't have anything to lose. I'm not saying to be dishonest. What I have to go on with an answer to your question, is, you said, "My significant other." That can mean a lot of things.

Regardless, to me, it would be the same if the situation were, suppose, he got married after he got his ID and you didn't have the same last name. You would be entitled to an ID with your last name even if it didn't match his. They don't ask for marriage certificates. when issueing IDs. Does any of this make sense?

However, if that were the case, what would prevent anyone from doing a favor for a friend or relative by going to the office and saying the same thing? Proof of residency requirements make sense to me.
