NH Temporary paper licenses and the TSA

wifi · 11-14-2008, 05:55 AM

I had to renew my drivers license, and as you know, NH now issues a paper temporary license while they submit your personal data to the Feds for approval, etc, etc, etc. So, my question is:

Has anyone used your paper license as identification in an airport? NH claims there is no problem with the local airports (ME/NH/MA) but has no info on out of the region. I'd be going down south.

My passport has expired, and I've lost my birth cert, so that is no help, lol. The state also said if I bring old expired documention (old original DL or old passport), that is a violation of terrorist laws, and I'd go to jail. Don't know the truth of it, and I don't care to try.

Also, can anyone tell me how long it took from their paper license to a real one coming in the mail?

TIA
