Can I use my temporary ID?

Can I use my temporary ID?

  • I lost my ID and Texas gives you a paper id until yours is mailed--- I still havent received it yet-- Can I use my paper ID and bank card (with photo on it) to board the plane?

  • Answer:

    I wouldn't see why not. It's issued by the DMV, and the only reason they give it to you is because they need time for yours to be printed. You can still drive on a temporary permit or license, so I don't see why you couldn't use it to board a lane, just as long as it hasn't expired yet (the temporary's here in Oregon have something like a 1 or 1-1/2 month expiration date). However, the first thing I would do would be to call the airport, and perhaps the TSA, just to make sure.

Hm, that's a good question. It needs to be a government issued, photo ID. Here in IL you can go to the DMV just to get an ID card, not a drivers license. Is there any way you can do that in Texas? Did they say how long it would take to get your ID in the mail? When is your flight? http://www.tsa.dhs.gov/travelers/airtravel/acceptable_documents.shtm I just did a quick glance at this...and by the looks of it, I don't think this would be acceptable. I take it as the photo ID itself has to include your name, date of birth, etc...and I doubt your bank card has your date of birth on it.

If you flying inside the US perhaps that's enough, but not to another foreign country. Why are you not calling and asking how long you need to wait for your ID?

No you can not. I have tried it and was denied. You have to have a valid photo id.

Current photo id is required - BUT if you are leaving the country a valid passport is the only thing
