You have to turn in your IDs at the Spanish Springs office for the period the renters are here. You can pick it up any time after they leave. Brenda and Margie have the whole process down to a fine art and will happily walk you through the procedures.

So, the steps are:

1. Fill out form.
2. Turn in form to SS.
3. Turn in homeowner ID cards (if you're up north and need the new ID cards now, talk to Brenda, she can probably arrange something so that you can mail her the ID cards).
4. Pay $50 (renters can actually pay this when they pick up their ID cards at LSL).

To be on the safe side, it doesn't hurt to fill out the form authorizing someone that is in TV to be your representative in case something goes wrong with the ID card process. Checks have been known to get lost in the mail, last-second rentals happen. That way, your rep can fill out the forms and do the necessary if there is a time crunch.
