[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We just got DC a Maryland state identification card because passport had expired and school ID didn't have enough information.  You can go to any full service Department of Motor Vehicle.

Make sure you take the long form if DC's birth certificate because they want to see a parent name that matches your official identification.  If a guardian, then something official that confirms guardianship.

When DC gets their driver's license, the ID has to be turned in.

To fly when they're too old for the unaccompanied minor program"

I've flown with my own kid, flown with other people's kids, and escorted my 13 year old niece, who wasn't part of the unaccompanied minor program (too old) to and from the gate.  In no situation has a minor been asked to show ID, not once, even when names didn't match (e.g. I was traveling with someone else's kid).

When my 7 year old flew as part of the unaccompanied minor program, the people picking him up on both ends (me and my brother) had to show ID that matched the name of the person who was checking him in, but they matched it to the name that was given at check in.  They never asked for ID for him.  He had his passport, because I didn't know he didn't need it, but they never asked to see it.[/quote]
