Hey guys just wanted to let you all know that I did not have any problems traveling to puerto rico. I only used my driver's license and it was all good. I advice everyone to use their driver's license or state ID if you can because I did notice that TSA at the airport do check the IDs very carefully. They look at you and your ID like 3 times just to make sure its you. Any ID from the US works best. I would advice not to use your passport because even though TSA is not immigration it seems like if you use your passport they check for a visa, I don't know if this is the case with all the TSA agents but when I was in line I saw one dominican guy use his passport and the TSA person was asking him about his visa and all these questions. He then called another TSA guy, but it turned out he did have a visa. So be very careful about using your passport. Anyhow, Puerto Rico is beautiful and people are really friendly!

Thanks for reporting! Did you also take your EAD and DACA approval letter as back-up?

Yes. I definitely took my EAD and approval just in case. I also took my passport just for the heck of it. People say it's like flying to any state in the US but i kind of disagree because i noticed TSA looks at you more carefully. When i traveled to Florida both times the TSA guy barely checked my ID, same thing to Cali but in PR they just want to make sure you're the one on your ID since there has been cases where people use someone else identity just to get to the mainland. As long as you can prove you live in the US you should be good to go!

I just got back from PR on Tuesday, the tsa guy looked at my drivers license and handed it right back (my license is about to expire) then I remembered I had a couple of questions so I went back and asked him if my 2 younger sisters who have no Id could travel to PR from florida, and all he said was "of course underage children don't need identification." So yea, it's a domestic flight, nothing to worry about, as Long as you have your id you will be alright, stop freaking out people. Next stop Waikiki!!!

He's a fugitive of the law who escaped Puerto Rico to come to the U.S. and begin a new life as an Illegal Immigrant.

That's what I don't understand with these PR posts, aren't PR naturally US territory and thus all aren't Puerto Rican natural born US citizens? (hell, PR just passed the vote to be the 51st state!)
