OT Passport expiration
This morning discovered my passport expires in September. One more thing
for me to forget to do. Next time I travel, likely Mexico (I'm on the border), I'll not be able to re-enter the US because my passport is no longer good. I'll have to spend eternity, or the rest of my life, whichever comers first, in Mexico! And I can't speak Spanish! -- You know it's time to clean the refrigerator when something closes the door from the inside. |

Check the regulations, some countries allow citizens to return on an expired passport up to 6 months before the "best before date", US may be the same. |

Tried this week for a Real ID license. (forgot to take a W-2 - don't get pay stubs anymore). They wanted a SS Card. Haven't seen mine in 30 years. Gave them 4 military documents with my SS# but they would not accept them as proof of my SS#. I'm still mad about them not taking the military records as fact. A SS Card states it is not to be used for identification. Even had my birth certificate with tiny foot prints on it Nevada DMV is a sorry operation for a state with only 2.8 million residents. I have a new DL in the mail, but they will put a Veteran designation on it. https://www.dhs.gov/enhanced-drivers...-what-are-they Wife and I got them at our last drivers license renewal (DE).

Minnesota is one of those liberal states who thought they were above the government ID mandate, so the current license will soon not be accepted at airports, and other places, as proper ID. |

Few weeks ago I traded in my old car for a new one. Did this on a Saturday but bank was closed for weekend and Monday holiday. Just extra work to do. I see from Oren's response that he had trouble. We had no trouble but probably took in more than we needed. |

Similar thing going on in Ontario, Canada concerning our health care cards, my wife was forced to get hers replaced, the ID requirements are rather picky. I am expecting my notice any time soon. I have a friend that works in health care she said we are all being forced to get the new cards. Bit of aggravation for mostly free medical care isn't a big deal though in my opinion. :-) -- Froz...

It was 25 cents to laminate my SS card between two strips of wide thin clear tape. It kept my card from becoming tattered and damaged by moisture over the years. At home, I have my own heated laminating machine I bought several years ago that uses fairly thick plastic sheet to cover documents as wide as 9 inches. I use it for insurance cards, vehicle tag receipts and other documents I need to keep in my vehicle.

Minnesota is one of those liberal states who thought they were above the government ID mandate, so the current license will soon not be accepted at airports, and other places, as proper ID. That's one of those ways the feds extort states into doing those things the feds want. The federal ID card idea has been around for quite a while. First it was floated years ago as a way to combat illegal immigration. When that didn't work, the hysteria of the citizenry demanding that the government do something about terrorism revived the concept of the Imperial Federal Government citizen ID card. If a government can find you and identify you, it can control you. Our government can't seem to do anything about illegal immigrants because it can't find them but it can easily frak with us citizens. We have become subjects of The Imperial Federal Government and we accepted it without a fight. Bend over, mandatory body cavity searches are coming to a TSA roadblock on the streets of your city. o_O [8~{} Uncle Citizen Monster |

A motor vehicle operator's permit (Drivers License) is authorization for operating a motor vehicle on public roads. At least that's what it's supposed to be for. It's been hijacked by The Imperial Federal Government as a way to control its subjects. For those with a belief in The Bible, it's basically become "The Mark Of The Beast".

Selective enforcement of this crap has us all annoyed. The same people that want your full identity want to allow people to vote without proof of citizenship. |

They just added so stuff to the DL and went to great pains to point out that is still isn't federally compliant and won't be anytime soon. Some states asked for a waiver but Montana never did. The feds gave us a waiver just to save face. |

If your state issues the new secure drivers license it may be as acceptable as a passport. Sore subject with me. Tried this week for a Real ID license. (forgot to take a W-2 - don't get pay stubs anymore). They wanted a SS Card. Haven't seen mine in 30 years. [snip] Will they take any 1099s from your copy of last year's income tax return? Those have your name, mailing address, and many still have a full ssn printed on them (although many now only print the last 4 digits). Also, go to www.socialsecurity.gov - register on the site - apply for a replacement card. |

This morning discovered my passport expires in September. One more thing for me to forget to do. Next time I travel, likely Mexico (I'm on the border), I'll not be able to re-enter the US because my passport is no longer good. I'll have to spend eternity, or the rest of my life, whichever comers first, in Mexico! And I can't speak Spanish! -- You know it's time to clean the refrigerator when something closes the door from the inside. They last 10 years and then you have to have it renewed for about $85. |
