I lost all my ID's, how can I get a New York State ID?

You can get a replacement New York State ID if yours was lost or destroyed, or after you update your address ¹ ²: - Online: You can get a replacement online if you have an Enhanced or REAL ID. You can download and print a temporary license in PDF format to use until your new license arrives. - By mail: You can get a replacement by mail if you have an Enhanced or REAL ID. You need to send a completed Application for Permit, Driver License or Non-Driver ID Card (pdf)(MV-44), photocopies of proof of identity and the appropriate payment fee to NYS Department of Motor Vehicles. - In-person: You can get a replacement in-person at any DMV office if you want to get an Enhanced or REAL ID. You need to bring your current Standard non-driver ID, a completed Application for Permit, Driver License or Non-Driver ID Card (pdf)(MV-44) and the appropriate payment fee. - Note that you can check the mailing status of your photo document online. Due to a greater than normal volume of renewals, there may be a delay in receipt of your permanent document.
