I assume you are referring to the "matricula consular" photo ID card issued to Mexican citizens residing in the United States. Their acceptance varies by jurisdiction. I have seen them accepted in New York City for purposes of cashing a check, opening a bank account, showing ID to a police officer, using a credit card at a retail store. I have also seen them rejected by bar bouncers as not being sufficient for proving age. I believe some of the new Arizona-style state Immigration statutes stipulate that they are not to be accepted for any purpose as legal identification.

If this is the only ID you have, then it is better than nothing. You should invest in a (foreign) passport, however, and try to obtain a copy of your birth certificate. These are much better forms of ID. The one advantage that the matricula consular has is that it shows the address of your US residence.
