You get it from the post office and the prices are between 30-55 dollars. You will need to have your birth certificate in order to apply for one.

My did not come back in time, so I have my birth certificate and DL.

Mine cost $55 from the County clerk office. You can also go to the Post office. First thing is you need a passport photo. You can go to any Walgreens or CVS and get one taken for $10. (no smile) You take the photo, driver's license, and original birth cert.

Mine said 4-6 weeks, it took 3 weeks. FYI - Since 9/11 you have to send in your birth cert. (no copies). They mail it back.

Mine was $71 at post office, they take pic there because they said they have been having problems with the Walgreens pics working.. Not sure what they meant by that but ya.. Birth certificate( original) and drivers license... Passport is $171 w pic..prices may differ from state to state .. Not sure

Is this what you used or someone said you could?

In Canada and MX I was told I could enter, but I could not come back without a passport

I can pretty much echo everything that's been said.

I got my passport card at the county clerk's office. It cost $55.

I brought a passport photo (taken at Walgreens for $10.99) and my birth certificate with me.

I had to pay by check; they wouldn't accept cash.

Tomorrow will be two weeks since I applied. I'm hoping I get it back within the next couple weeks.

You'll also have to fill out an application that asks you things like your parents' date/location of birth, etc.

I didn't read the message u were responding to all the way.. Ya? Is that ok to use DL/BC? Maybe since there is proof that it was in process I'm thinking.. Ya we were told passcard/port or no go .. But surely they wouldn't make u go back!

pass card is the same as enhanced license? That is just the same as a passport/ license combined

Yes, they certainly will refuse entry! They are very serious.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
