It’s easier on me to renew my book passport and passport card than it is to go to Motor Vehicles to renew my State ID card. All I have to do is go to the pharmacy that does passport photos and the post office to get an application. Both are on the same bus stop.
My passport card expires in 2030, and my book passport expires in 2017. My State ID card expires in 2014 and has to be renewed every four years, while passports are good for ten years.
I probably will try to renew my State ID card in 2014 if I can make it to Motor Vehicles with my arthritis. If not, I’ll just to rely on my passport.
My mistake. The book passport expires in 2027, the passport card expires in 2030, and my State ID card expires in 2024. My brain doesn’t work too well.
I went to Canada (Quebec) when I was in my 20’s. I’m 62 now. I found it to be kinda scary being in a foreign country where you don’t speak the language or know the laws. I haven’t wanted to leave the US since.
