What's the Big Deal About a Gold Star?
Before we get into the nitty-gritty, let's address the elephant in the room: why on earth would anyone want a gold star on their driver's license? Well, my friend, it's not just about looking like a high achiever in the DMV's eyes. That shiny little star is your passport to board domestic flights and enter federal buildings without a passport. It's basically the DMV's version of a VIP pass.

What Do You Need for This Golden Achievement?
Alright, let's cut to the chase. To get that coveted gold star, you'll need to provide the following documents:
Tip: Reread the opening if you feel lost.

- Social Security Number: You know, that little card with those nine magical numbers.
- Two Proofs of Texas Residency: This could be anything from utility bills to bank statements. Just make sure they have your name and address.
- Proof of Legal Presence: If you're not a U.S. citizen, you'll need to prove your legal status.
Important Note: Originals are usually preferred, but certified copies might do the trick. And yes, we know it's a pain, but it's the price you pay for stardom.
QuickTip: Don’t just scroll — process what you see.
