from the CAcert website: -------
CAcert Web of Trust Rules It is essential that CAcert Assurers understand and follow the rules below to ensure that applicants for assurance are suitably identified, which, in turn, maintains trust in the system. Contact * You must meet the applicant in person; * You must sight at least one form of government issued photo identification. It's preferable if 2 forms of Government issued photo ID are presented, as less points may be issued if there is any doubt on the person by the person issuing points; * Compare and verify that the copy of the identification sighted is a true and correct copy; * Complete the assurance form if the applicant has not already done so. Ensure that all information matches. ------- For a _second_ photo ID, one might have an employee ID for a state agency or a student ID for a state university. I would only accept (ie. allocate the full number of points I'm allowed to give) one of those if I had a reasonable sense of that ID's validity. For example, our sponsor ECU ( http://www.ecu.edu/ ) is a state university, but I have no clue what their IDs look like. I do know what a UNC OneCard looks like (I have one). For non-photo ID, there's Mr. Barlow's suggestion of a birth certificate, but one could also accept a Social Security card, a Selective Service registration card, or perhaps a voter registration card. But again, these are not photo IDs, so the full number of points should not be issued based on these IDs. The rules aren't more detailed about what forms of ID are acceptable because not only do IDs vary from one location to another, but the important factor is the assurers ability to verify that the ID is valid.

Curious -- if a person doesn't have a passport, what would they have besides a drivers license?
