URGENT! CAN YOU...
 
Pick up your BCID from somewhere? If it hasn't been mailed yet.
I went in and got one but have not gotten it yet, I need it for tomorrow!
Any idea on what to do?

You gonna have to hop the fence ma man

it's pretty much gfg... if you are in that much of a hurry you can TRY to get a passport made. Let them know what is wrong and ask for a "urgent" service (can be same-day depending on what time you get to the passport office). But unless you got proof of travel (ie: a plane ticket, or a letter from a hospital etc...) it will most likely they will only go with an express (3-5 days)...

Can you use your passport to get into a club? I found it after scavenging the whole house. I'll have me debit card and everything with me, are you allowed to?

nabs 11-14-2009 02:52 PM

yes you can.

Do they care that you might not have a license? I don't really wanna go then be turned back.

nabs 11-14-2009 03:01 PM

you won't get turned back with a valid passport. they just need government issued ID. what better ID is your passport. its almost more proof that you are who you say you are.

No. passport will do.

dizzystar 11-14-2009 05:46 PM

yo man, fact of the matter is is that a passport counts as TWO pieces of government issued ID, so rock on.

unless its expired, they may tell you to go away if its expired.

you! 11-14-2009 06:36 PM

lol of course a passport is good enough

murd0c 11-14-2009 10:49 PM

a passport is actually better id then a licence/bcid.

CP.AR 11-14-2009 10:52 PM

Officially though, a Passport is not considered "ID", it is defined as a "Government issued travel document".

if he is trying to get a passport with just a birth cert/ cit card and nothing else they will laugh at him and tell him to go away

if he has proof of citizenship and secondary ID they MAY be able to do something for him, but passport services are to facilitate travel, not to get into a club or what have you

TheKingdom2000 11-14-2009 11:38 PM

no such a thing as a dumb question?
this one qualify's..

why didn't you ask the driving centre this question?
and of course you can use your passport to get into a club... that is probably the most legit piece of ID in the world.

I used to work there... you have no idea how many people just bring ONE piece of ID (at times expired ID... like seriously?:confused:)

yellowpower 11-15-2009 06:45 PM

You must not travel much since you had to scavenge your damn house for your passport. Its the most important piece of id you have! without it your screwed, how do you just leave it lying around lmao

Crowtservo 11-15-2009 06:56 PM

Many people don't have driver's licenses. It's not the only form of identification. As many people have stated already, your passport is the best ID possible.

bcedhk 11-15-2009 07:36 PM

u'd look like a dork though giving a passport for id check.

Dont worry, it was in a safe place. Which I happened to forget:p
And it worked fine. Thanks.

SkunkWorks 11-15-2009 09:26 PM

I've used my expired passport a couple of times.

Wouldn't recommend full-time use though.
