Can I travel within the US if I havent done my Adjust of Status???

[berni32]

I came first as an Au Pair and met my husband, then I went home to my country and then I came back to US with a VSITOR's visa and got married days before the visa expired and we have a baby boy born here in US. Now we've been married for almost a year and Im currently completing my Adj of Status forms.

We live in PA and we are planning to go to California in about 6 weeks. Do I need a special altorization to travel within the US or not???

Only if you are traveling outside the US or to Puerto Rico. Within the US, you must show a valid Id such as a passport or driver's license. No I-131 is required within the Continental US, Alaska, or Hawaii.

The question has been asked many times. If you have a US ID or driver license, that's enough to travel within the US. The only problem is that the USCIS sometimes check people at the airport if they look suspicious. This is particularly true in places close to the border like San Diego in California. Minorities usually are the target. But if you're from Europe and a white, it's unlikely they would suspect you. Domestic travel won't be a problem. Just beware of people who know you're illegal and then tip off the airport people. It happened and would happen....

I mean there is sometimes random checking at the airport. After 9/11, US authorities have become paranoid. Worse is if you look Middle Easter with a Muslim sounding name...
