Title: ID Question
Post by: Shiro Y. on May 19, 2015, 05:09:16 PM
Sorry if this question has already been answered somewhere, I couldn't find it.
I am 19 but currently do not have an ID other than my student ID for University of California Santa Cruz. Will I have trouble when I go pick up my ticket since my birthday is not on the ID card? If that is a problem, will I be able to use my student ID from my last year of high school? Any advice welcome, thanks.

I don't think they even look at birthdays. Just names and faces. Your student ID should be fine unless you've drastically changed appearance.

Okay, thanks. So then if I wanted to go to a 16/18+ event could I use my High School ID from last year?

For events that are 18+ it does need to show your DOB on it.

That is probably going to be a no. I don't know if they accept anything outside of driver's licenses for those events. And they absolutely do check ID.

Kuudere,

Government issued photo ID with the Date of Birth.  So passports work, drivers license, etc.

Ah, yes. Government-issued is the key wording. You're right.
