HI guys,
So I'm going to NYC with my family for vacation. Me, my bro and sister have DACA and DLs. My mom however, only has a valid Foreign passport and AB 60 DL with federal limits. Should I be worried about her getting checked through TSA and getting questioned? She's very nervous about it and having second thoughts about going. Our flight is in 6 hours, so I really need an answer from you guys ASAP.
Thanks!

Do not use AB60 DL. It's not a valid ID for boarding an airplane. As for a foreign passport, some people use it without any issue but I also heard a story about getting an issue with a TSA and a border patrol.

What was the issue? Did they question their immigration status?

Yes, they did question their status but this happened a few years back. I could not find that article anymore. This one should give you an idea https://www.avvo.com/legal-answers/c...--1799379.html

I am wondering about this as well. My mother would like to visit me for military graduation but her CA ID just expired and will need to use a foreign passport.

Thanks that was helpful advice from lawyers. So it seems risky for her to fly with just her passport. I think it's best for her to stay. A week long vacation isn't worth the risk of deportation proceedings. Thanks for your input.
Cheers!

What? I've flown so many times with my passport before I got DACA... TSA only looks at the front ID page... never had issues.

The only issues I've heard of is smaller airports near land borders like El Paso.

I live in LA, I've flown to NYC with just my passport so many times.

You will be fine with a valid passport. In the past 2 years I traveled over 5 times nationally and internationally with a valid passport and had no issues.
