CURRENT BILL SUMMARY
SB 772 - This act exempts homeless children, homeless youths, and unaccompanied youths, as defined by law, from certain fees collected by Department of Revenue fee offices. (Section 136.055.8). The act also adds these groups to the definition of "emancipated minor" for purposes of proving the supervised driving experience required to obtain an intermediate driver's license, and exempts emancipated minors from intermediate driver's license fees. (Section 302.178).
The act provides that no fee shall be required or collected from a homeless child, homeless youth, or unaccompanied youth to obtain his or her first nondriver identification card. (Section 302.181.6).
A minor's status as a homeless child, homeless youth, or unaccompanied youth under the act shall be verified by a letter signed by a director or designee of a governmental or nonprofit agency providing services to homeless persons, by a local education agency liaison as described under federal law, by a school social worker or counselor, or by an attorney who is representing the minor in a legal matter. (Sections 136.055.8, 302.178.10, and 302.181.6).
This act is identical to provisions in SCS/HCS/HB 1775 (2024), provisions in HCS/SS#2/SB 862 (2024), SB 47 (2023), and provisions in HCS/SS/SB 198 (2023), substantially similar to provisions in HCS/HB 355 (2023), identical to SCS/SB 1167 (2022), and similar to HB 2789 (2022), provisions in SCS/HCS/HB 2376 (2022), and provisions in HCS/SS#2/SB 823 (2022).
