For an applicant age 18 or older who does not qualify for the Modernization Act RID exception, how many proofs of North Carolina residency does NCDMV require?
-
A.
One
-
B.
Three
-
C.
Two Correct
-
D.
Four
The answer is "Two"
Adults 18 or older must show two proofs of North Carolina residency; only one proof is required when the applicant qualifies for the Modernization Act RID exception, which this prompt excludes. Choice A tempts readers who skimmed the paragraph and carried the single-proof RID rule over to the general adult application.
The traps in the wrong answers
A. One
The one-proof rule applies only to the Modernization Act RID exception, which the prompt excludes. Carries the single-proof RID exception over to the general adult application instead of applying it only to a RID renewal.
B. Three
The residency table requires two proofs. Its list of acceptable documents gives options for satisfying that requirement; it does not increase the required count to three. Counts a third document for safety after seeing a long list of acceptable options and assuming more items on the list mean more proofs required.
D. Four
The residency table requires two proofs, not four. Crosses the two-proof residency count with the longer multi-category identity checklist and assumes one document from each category is required.
