Pikachu Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 I can understand not having a passport if you don't travel internationally at all. They're not cheap either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, before I get too much shit over my comment I will state that I was mostly kidding. I know a lot of people don't have passports and/or go on a lot of international trips. Still, passports are not that expensive. $145 for 10 years is really not bad. I realize it's an "additional" cost over a driver's license, but considering that driver's licenses are valid from 4-8 years and cost anywhere from $10 to $89 (all data from this website), depending on the state, the average yearly cost for a driver's license is $6.72. So at $145 for 10 years it is relatively more expensive than a driver's license, per year. Still, I think most people here can afford an extra $14.50 per year.

Only time I've ever been out of the country in my life was Canada before 9/11, so I never needed one. I do plan to travel internationally in the next few years, so I'll get one before then.

I also don't understand letting it expire once you have it. It's a PITA to have to start from scratch, but it's pretty easy to just keep renewing it.

I have to renew mine in 2019 and honestly it’s just something you budget for if you want to travel abroad.

johnny Posted December 8, 2018 Author Share Posted December 8, 2018 Lol at telling people they need a passport. A lot of Americans don’t really get the privilege of traveling the world. If you have the money sure why not I guess. But you could also wait until you’re going to actually plan to go overseas to spend the money.

In the past all I had to do was go online and pay, print out some paper and take it to the dmv photo room. Usually in and out in 10 minutes.

Chairslinger Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 I just got my license renewed and got the star on it. Very glad I don't have to bother with that again until 2025. I live right on the state line, so instead of going to the BMV 5 minutes away from my house I gotta drive a fucking hour to get my liscense from a state a barely drive in. Last year I drove all the way out there just to be told I needed two forms of mail proving my address instead of just one(because apparently one is really easy to forge, but two is where you trip up).

There's a list online, do it online first and get a confirmation otherwise when you go to the DMV they will ask you if you did it online and if you didn't you'll get cucked. https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/dmv/detail/realid/checklist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably also a good idea to take as many pieces as you can just in case they decide not to accept one. I took 4, just in case. Also, your birth certificate, social security card, and current ID(but none of those count towards the proof of address afaik) @johnny The lady was also pretty picky about my birth certificate. I have it folded, and I guess the seal was on one of the creases. She said, "I'll have to ask for a second opinion on this" and I was thinking, "you do that, don't know what the hell you think is gonna happen if they don't approve." I would have been screwed if they hadn't accepted it because in my experience it takes monthes yo try to track down a new copy of your birth certificate. And I had waited until it was close to expiring(in March) so I probably would have been stuck taking a written test and maybe even a road test again.

AndyD Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Just get an enhanced id? That's what I did. I personally prefer not to carry around a passport unless I'm leaving the country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
