@Lilykin: thanks for the goodluck wish for $$$

i finally managed to some of the stuff they needed to process my application for the money.
totally would have been easier if i had a valid alberta id. but it expired. i procrastinated on renewing it since i do have a valid id, a passport.
but it needed to be a id with my address on it, passports don't have your address. -3-

@Lilykin: i'm not sure if the id registration place is open, or it's by appoinment only. with the covid situation, things are harder to do.
i remember during the fort mac fires, we applied for the evacuation funds in person and got a debit card with the money on it.
luckilly my id wasn't expired back then. didn't think we'd have another evacuation situation again.

lesson learned, always have a valid id.
i procrastinated cause it costs like $50 to renew,
and i also would have to remove my hat & glasses for the photo. >.>

thanks, i like your avatar too. ^u^
i'm thinking of making one for all the wings,
but my next avy is kinda meh, so i might start over.

yeah when i google it, i found this:
"For individuals who cannot hold or do not wish to hold an Alberta Driver's License, an Alberta ID card is available. The cost is $49.00 for a five-year term."
and for driver's licenses its
"Alberta driver's license renewal fees vary based on the number of years you renew your license for. The cost to renew your driver's license can range from $21 (for one year) up to $84 (for five years). An additional $7.35 will be applied to out of province drivers licenses"

so yeah $50 to renew an alberta id, and it's good for 5 years.
so really $10 a year isn't too bad.
