DH and I are travelling to Jamaica next month for a belated Honeymoon. I changed both my name and address with the DMV, but only got a paper "update card" and not an actual hard photo ID with the changes. Has anyone had experience using the paper cards with airport security/customs?
I'm thinking I may want to just suck it up and pay the $12 for a new hard card to not have to deal with the hassle of it not matching my passport. I just dont know how accepting they are of the paper versions. DH also has a paper card with just an address change, I feel like that is probably less of a big deal than the names not matching, but I'm wondering if we should just get him a new driver's license as well.
Any input would be appreciated!
Re: travel question
i just posted on the travel board and they claim that i only need a passport, not a drivers license. i always used both. so now, i dont know what to do. both of our licenses dont expire until 2011 so we wouldnt be getting new cards any time soon.
no advice on your question ... but where are you headed to, in jamaica? we just got back from honeymoon #3 a couple weeks ago. had a lovely time.
while on my lunch today, i just went ahead and got it anyway. i asked the DMV person and she said that yes definitely both my husband and i should have the hard drivers license vs the hard and paper update. but then again, im sure she could have said that just to get the $12. but for the peace of mind for both of it, it was worth it.
flamoogle- we are going to Sandals Whitehouse. where did you stay?
