I am going on a cruise March 30, I have a passport question?

Question

I am a u.s citizen but husband is cuban and has a permant resident card, I know that i dont' need a passport (its not required till summer) But does my husband need one, or is the resident card sufficient

Answer 1

The same passport requirement apply to everyone entering/re-entering the US.  So your husband will be fine with his resident card, plus the other positive ID's required.

Now you can take the advice in answers from the people who respond on here, or if you want a 100% correct answer you should call the US Immigration Service (they are the ones who staff the windows when people come into the US0 and ask the question of people who positively know the answer.

Answer 2

Where do you get the idea you don't need a passport until summer?  You needed a passport in JANUARY of this year to enter the U.S. by ship or plane.  Your husband WILL need a passport or he WILL NOT ENTER THE U.S.... why is that so hard to understand.?
