To avoid the line to get an ID at the Personnel Support Detachment (PSD) office, the PSD Bethesda site security manager at Naval Support Activity Bethesda recommends scheduling appointments online.
“There’s less wait time and they are a priority,” said Renee Dyson, PSD Bethesda site security manager, team leader, of those who schedule appointments online.
Walk-ins are welcome, but wait times can be anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour.
“We try not to have them wait that long, but if it’s crowded we can’t help it,” she said.
Mondays and Fridays are usually the busiest times during the week. Busy times during the year are around holidays and vacation times as well as the end of the fiscal year, Dyson explained.
Before coming for an appointment, Dyson recommends people go online and review the list of required documents for their appointment. Two forms of unexpired ID are required for a new ID card.
“Please, please, please when you come in, make sure you have unexpired IDs,” she said.
When people don’t have all the necessary material, the PSD Bethesda employees have to tell them to come back before they can get an ID.
PSD Bethesda, located in Bldg. 17, is open Monday to Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.
To schedule an appointment go to rapids-appointments.dmdc.osd.mil.
