	 (1) 	 Proof of identity must be a photo ID card that is current and valid and includes an expiration date. The following forms of identification are acceptable: an Iowa driver’s license or nonoperator’s ID, an out-of-state driver’s license or nonoperator’s ID, a United States passport, a United States military identification card, an identification card issued by an employer, or a student identification card issued by an Iowa high school or an Iowa postsecondary educational institution. If the photo ID does not show the person’s address in the appropriate precinct, the person must show proof of residence.
	 (2) 	 Proof of residence may be any of the following documents provided that the document shows the person’s name and address in the precinct: residential lease, property tax statement, utility bill, bank statement, paycheck, government check, or other government document.
