Can you use a matricula consular to prove your identity when a federal law enforcement agent asks you for ID?
Asked by Wiki User
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.
What is Writers Identification?
Asked by Wiki User
Writer's Identification is a handwritten (and often stylized) depiction of someone's name, nickname, or even a simple "X" that a person writes on documents as a proof of identity and intent. The writer of a signature is a signatory.
Can you apply for a passport with your deed poll documents?
Asked by Wiki User
Yes - the Identity & Passport Service will accept a deed poll as proof of your change of name.
However a deed poll is not a proof of identity on its own. You'll still need to send in your birth certificate (or your previous passport, if you've got one).
If you've changed your name by deed poll, your new passport won't mention your old name - it'll only mention your new name (as stated on your deed poll).
Can New York City agencies require that a resident obtain a New York City Identity Card in order to obtain services or benefits?
Asked by Johntorresbrooklyn
Although New York City agencies can require residents to present identification, they cannot by law require that the identification be in the form of a New York City Identity Card. Residents may present other forms of state issued or federal issued identification.
Is a statutory declaration change of name the same as deed poll?
Asked by Wiki User
A statutory declaration is not exactly the same as a deed poll, but they're very similar in purpose.
Both types of document do the same thing (legally change your name), and they're both accepted by all government bodies in the UK as proof of your change of name.
A statutory declaration is a solemn declaration of fact. It's an imprisonable offence in the UK to knowingly make a false statutory declaration. A statutory declaration needs to be made in front of a solicitor, notary public, or Commissioner for Oaths.
A deed poll, on the other hand, is a legally binding commitment to change your name for all purposes. It doesn't need to be witnessed by a solicitor.
How strict are fake ID laws?
Asked by Wiki User
Fake ID laws are pretty much the same everywhere in the US. In most places, possession of a fake ID is a misdemeanor, and can be punished by a max of 1 year jail and $1,000 fine. However, most judges will give a lesser sentence if it is your first offense, such as a fine with no jail time. The bigger problem is if you are going there on vacation, you would probably have to go back later for court.
It isn't the laws themselves that matter here, so much as enforcement of those laws in the specific bars or clubs that you are seeking to commit the crime in. Regardless of how tough the law is, if the establishment does not turn you in to the police, it doesn't matter.
Using a fake ID is illegal.
Yes. The act of using a fake ID is fraud, whether you are committing identity theft or simply trying to trick some merchant into violating age laws.
