What is considered "State Issued" ID?

I've never run into this one before. A student turned in a photocopy their BYU student ID to fulfill their "PHOTOCOPY OF YOUR DRIVER LICENSE OR STATE ISSUED IDENTIFICATION CARD" requirement. I'm very doubtful that it is considered ID in the same regards as a State issued ID card or a State issued driver's license.

Any thoughts?

I have my doubts that BYU is a state agency empowered to issue ID cards. :lol:
My thoughts as well. No DOB, address, or signature are on the card. In fact, other than the photo and printed name, there isn't any other PII other than a student number.

My wife and I were down in Vegas last week to, among other things, spend some time with our daughter and her family, who currently live on base at Nellis. As we have done several times before, we went down to get a 72-hour pass to be able to come and go without our daughter or her husband having to come "sponsor" us through the gate each time. Utah is one of a small handful of states for which two forms of state or gov't. issued ID are required for such a pass (their website does make this known at all... it was posted on the door of the visitors center). Previously, we had always been able to use our CWP as one of our forms of ID (with drivers license). This time was different.
The claim is that they require a form of photo ID, plus one that proves US citizenship. A Utah DL does not meet that. NEITHER DO THE VAST MAJORITY OF OTHER STATE DRIVER'S LICENSES! Obviously a CWP does not qualify in this case either, and does not typically qualify as a state issued ID.
Anyway, I post this as information (with just a hint of a rant :evil: ) Anyway, if you want to get a pass at Nellis, and you are from Utah, take your passport or birth certificate with you for a second ID.
P.S. After a lot of talking, they finally let us slide this time, and gave us our passes, but I will be better prepared in the future.
Or just whip out your retired military ID or drive through with your car that has the military base stickers on it... Ooooh! Wait! You don't have either?!?!?!? Then I guess it's wait at the gate for the dependent sponsor to come and fetch you.
:wink:

I predict that their CFP application will either be "delayed" or "denied".
I didn't send it in but requested that the student send me another form of ID. The student complied and sent a photocopy of a current passport which I attached to the application and turned in a day later. All is well, and BCI confirmed that the BYU student ID wouldn't be accepted as a valid form of ID for CFP application purposes.

Just brought the Passport and my retired military ID in the summer of 2010 to correct the wrong city on the DL (they listed St. George but had everything else, including the zip code correct) and then renewed online this fall. EZ - PZ... Took all of 10 minutes the first time and less than 5 minutes to do the online renewal.
