Forum members are discussing the challenges faced by a Canadian webcam model who is unable to subscribe to another website due to having only an expired passport and a Canadian health card for identification. The model expresses a need for this to work due to financial reasons. Here's a summary of the advice and insights shared:
- Members suggest finding a birth certificate and applying for a new passport as a solution, noting that an expired passport can still serve as an identity document but not for travel purposes.
- It is highlighted that no cam site typically accepts an expired passport for identification, and even bars may deny entry with such ID.
- Alternatives to a passport for identification are discussed, including driver's licenses, though concerns are raised about privacy issues due to addresses being listed on these IDs.
- Some members share negative experiences with using a driver's license as ID for cam sites and advise against it.
- The option of obtaining a photo ID card, which is available in most provinces, is mentioned. However, the downside mentioned is that these cards also contain addresses, making a new passport the preferred option.
- Advice is given on using a Post Office address on a driver's license or DMV ID to enhance privacy and security, with a note that this is possible in California and potentially other states. This strategy is also recommended for other important documents and bills.
