TWIC card

Friend of mine went to renew his TWIC said they wanted his passport. He doesn't have a passport. Wouldn't current TWIC serve as ID as long as it's not expired?

 

It actually stands for "Transportation Worker Identification Credential"

 

I'd have him talk to someone else. I've never needed my passport to renew my TWIC

 

Went in Monday, notified by email that has been mailed that Wednesday! I had HAZMAT so that probably expedited the process as IDENTOGO does all the processing for both Hazmat/TWIC. If it's in the mail to my house already I was wondering how long it may take to get to the house? Anyone else do this, and how long from notification to the mailbox did it take? Any help appreciated...Got a job waiting!

 

Right. Except the process is quicker if you already have a hazmat endorsement because you've already had the background check. At lease, that's the way it was four years ago.

 

I live outside Chicago and I believe it took 4 business days, might of been 5.

 

A TWIC card is a good thing to have in Chicago as the police will be able to identify your body quicker.

 

Update..... I received mine about 5 days ago and just hauled a load of BMW's out of Port of Dundalk-Baltimore.

 

How is Dundalk these days?
