I have heard a lot about the passport law that will take effect Jan 01 2009 stating that I will be needing a passport to return back to the US traveling by land. My question is what if I cannot get my passport because I owe back child support? I have friends & family who live in Mexicali & Tijuana whom I visit from time to time. Is there any other alternatives? Or are my days of visiting my friends & family numbered?? I also want to go to Guadalajara & other parts of mexico, and hopefully I could meet a beautiful female from there :)

Not legally, you will have to have one to legally go in an out of the US. So I guess paying your back child support may be a option.
