Need Help Quick
Hey everybody
I just found out that Stan's daughter and B friend do not have passports.....!
I just got off the phone with her and told her to call the State Dept. or embassy right now. I don't know if they can issue an emergency passport or
some document...?
They have birth certs, driver's lic. and a copy of Stan's death cert from Vizcaino.
Other than hide her under a tarp....does anyone have another sumgestion?????????????

I'm sure the birth certs, the DLs and the death certificate will get you back in the USA.
The question is, will it get you an FMM in Mexico. I cant say for sure. Maybe others will know.
But, rest assured, they will be admitted back into the USA with all that, especially if they seem to be of northern European descent. Just telling it
like it is, with that last statement.

You need a passport to get FMT...but I would just roll the dice in this situation. You may or may not be asked for it at GN. You could always bypass
the checkpoint, too.

You don't HAVE to have a passport to get back into the USA. However, if you are going south of Guerrero Negro and the INM guy wants to see an FMM, you
WILL need a passport to get an FMM.
I see Zac and I posted at the same time... as he said, there are other ways into Baja Sur than using Hwy. 1... where the INM office is. (FMT is the
old tourist card... they are called FMM now)

For what it's worth I drove right through the checkpoint in GN. I tried to stop but nobody came out and the line of traffic behind me got peeed so I
moved on.
I didn't have to show mine until I bought my ferry ticket from La Paz to Mazatlan.

The guy got up an looked at us from his doorway when we stopped at that stop sign in front of his office... He just waved us on, without asking to see
our tourist cards (the bug spray guy was not there as well)... You just never know...
The townsfolk of Guerrero Negro just avoid that and the bug spray guy by using the bypass... and it is at the the airport a mile or so before the
Eagle Monument traffic circle, didn't know about another at the hotel... but as I said many times, there are many open/ legal roads into Baja Sur
besides Hwy. 1.

Worst possible scenario...be prepared to pay a "fine" if you get jambed up at the checkpoint. Just act completely stoopid and show the guy a fifty
dollar bill saying you would like to pay for your permits to travel to Asuncion.

Entering the USA does require a passport, but will be waved if you can show them a DL or Birth Certificate ......IF you are driving in. You may be
directed to the secondary "as punishment".
Flying or Cruising REQUIRES a passport without question.
Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.
