Well, I'm in Mexico as I write this, and I'm returning after March 1st.  I was told I didn't have to have a passport to return (I certainly didn't need it to get down here), so I'm definitely hoping you don't have to have one.  \n\nGo to http://travel.state.gov/passport/passport_1738.html and do a little research.\n\nEDIT 3.6.06:\n\nWell, I'm back and with no birth certificate.  Sailed through with no problems.  Good ol' USA.

This is normal, passports can take a long time. If you're going out of the country soon you can use his birth certificate and photo ID. An ID card from DMV would be better but you can use school id's. check with the country you're going to. if he's younger than 14 he shouldnt need a passport. Please don't take my word for it, do lots of your own research. You may be in a different situation, and I don't want to get you into trouble.

Beginning on January 1, 2008, travellers to and from Canada will need to have a passport or "other secure, accepted document" to enter or re-enter the United States.  I know this answer doesn't directly address you question of going TO Candada, but you will soon need a passport to RETURN from Canada.

In the past few days they raised the ID requirements for leaving and entering the country.  I'm betting that everybody will need a passport.

First: Have your father speak to someone at homeland security (immigration). If you have been granted residence as the child of a legal resident, you can now come and go as you please. You WILL need a "parole" document to return to the USA.\n\nThe Green Card process does take a while, but is a step in the citizenship process if this is something that you want to do one day.\n\nAgain, 1st thing to do: have your father contact homeland security to find out what is next, and how you can come into the country. If your tourist visa is still valid, you can use this to come and go.

Lo siento, maybe never. Better to plan vacation in mexican border city, and visit mother there (if you are legal). Maybe consult with american Immigration Attorney. I do not advise illegal border crossing!

The green card allows you to work and live in the US.  You do need to wait the 5 years to become a citizen then you can apply for a US Passport.  In the meantime, you use the passport issued to you by your country and you can use that and your green card to get back in the US.  Happy travels!

hopefully this will help. also, because of the increased volumne of passport applications, it is possible that the price may go down in the not too distant future:\n\nNew Requirements for Travelers\n\n\nThe Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act of 2004 requires that by January 1, 2008, travelers to and from the Caribbean, Bermuda, Panama, Mexico and Canada have a passport or other secure, accepted document to enter or re-enter the United States.  In order to facilitate the implementation of this requirement, the Administration is proposing to complete it in phases following a proposed timeline, which will be published in the Federal Register in the near future. \n\nIn the proposed implementation plan, which is subject to a period of initial public comment, the Initiative will be rolled out in phases, providing as much advance notice as possible to the affected public to enable them to meet the terms of the new guidelines. The proposed timeline will be as follows: \n\nDecember 31, 2006 - Requirement applied to all air and sea travel to or from Canada, Mexico, Central and South America, the Caribbean, and Bermuda. \nDecember 31, 2007 - Requirement extended to all land border crossings as well as air and sea travel. \nThis is a change from prior travel requirements and will affect all United States citizens entering the United States from countries within the Western Hemisphere who do not currently possess valid passports.   This new requirement will also affect certain foreign nationals who currently are not required to present a passport to travel to the United States.  Most Canadian citizens, citizens of the British Overseas Territory of Bermuda, and to a lesser degree, Mexican citizens will be affected by the implementation of this requirement.

If your visa expired but you have an H1B petiton which has been approved by Immigration you can visit Canada and Mexico and return back to the US without getting a new visa for up to 30 days. You must have your old visa and approved petition to show at the border.\n\nIf you go to any other country you'll need to get a new visa put in your passport before entering the US.

I'd leave the country!  You should probably hook up with a fake passport, ID's, SS#'s etc...  You may even want to cut and color your hair, or wear a hat.  Boy am I glad I'm not in your position!!!

If you are just passing through(connecting flight), you can! If you intend to stay in the US , you need a visa!

I believe the requirement for a passport was due by the end of this year.  Check with the consulate or embassy to make sure.  You should probably get one just to be on the safe side.  I'm thinking they said the law would be in effect last October, but I'm not sure.\n\nBest Wishes on your marriage.  God Bless.\n\nSue

Get a passport first, if you are here in the US it can take 3-6 weeks to come in.\n\nSearch around for the cost of tickets.\n\nSave your money.\n\nGo and have FUN!

You can enter through pretty much any border city you want. If you are coming from the US you will need to show your drivers license or passport, and your birth certificate if they ask for it. If you are flying the same thing, but soon you will need a passport for both (Jan 2007 for air, Jan 2008 for ground)

Hello. I am a frequent traveler. The law is that as of now some people and us citizens could travel in and out of the us without a passport or visa. now you must have a passport to get back. \n\nthey are good for ten years and better id than even a drivers license so you can use it for other purposes. \n\nyou can apply for one at the post office and any county clerks.\n\nhttp://travel.state.gov/
