Neither REAL ID nor PASS ID would require an individual to re-enroll if he or she does not want a compliant driver's license or non-driver's license ID, but that person would not be able to use a noncompliant driver's license or other non-compliant ID for official purposes.
6.
Under PASS ID the same as under REAL ID a traveler who does not have a qualifying government issued ID will be subject to greater scrutiny as Transportation Security Officers (TSO) determine his or her identity and confirm that the passenger is not on the Terrorist Screening Center's watchlist. TSOs deal every day with travelers who have lost their identification or been victims of theft while on a trip. TSOs make an appropriate decision based on an assessment of available identification that a passenger may carry, or information that the passenger can provide.
