A rush for the federally mandated ID has prompted the state to open a processing center at 191 N. Clark St. — but most people don't need one, officials say.

With less than two months left until a Real ID will be required to board domestic flights and enter secure federal buildings, a “supercenter” has opened its doors in the Chicago Loop, aiming to expedite the process for thousands of residents trying to update their IDs.
