Legal Question in Education Law in Washington

I recently moved from Arizona to Washington and am trying to obtain my photo ID so I can get a job, but my Exwife took my licence, birth certificate, and military ID with her. All I have is my Social Security Card, an old college ID, and my current work ID. When I went to the DOL, i told them my situation, showed them all my Identification that i had, and they told me there was nothing they could do, Even though I was in there system already. Is there anything else that can be done to obtain my Photo ID ASAP? My job depends on it!

Not sure what the DOL is. Department of Labor? You didn't state where you were born. You may be able to contact that state's government and obtain on an expedited basis a certified copy of your birth certificate. Ditto for the military and AZ for a replacement of your driver's license. Your ex-wife has commited the tort of conversion of your property, etc., so you have an action against her. She has also committed theft, so file a criminal complaint. Ask the DOL what the statuatory basis is for them denying a photo ID.
