WIVB Asking 4 You

Does a passport card work like a passport---if so, why wouldn't I chose that over an enhanced license? Cost?

A regular passport is needed for any international travel, eg to fly to Europe. A passport card is limited to the same use that an EDL is- land and sea travel back from Mexico, Canada and the Caribbean. Cost is $45, good for ten years. Since you need to have a license anyhow, it is considered a good option to have the multi-use license instead, but that is a personal choice.
