Hi! goldglory,

One paragraph on the CK scheduling permit says this...'For admission to the test center, you must bring this scheduling permit and an unexpired, government-issued form of identification (such as a current driver's license or passport) that includes both your recent photograph and signature'. I guess you can see this on para 8 in your scheduling permit for CK.
BUT WHEN I TOOK THE TEST THERE WAS A NOTICE AT THE PROMETRIC CENTER SAYING PASSPORT WOULD ONLY BE AN ACCEPTABLE IDENTIFICATION FOR IMG'S.
So I guess you have to call the prometric center where you are supposed to take the exam immediately and find out.
good luck to you.

What did you show to the custom at the airport when you came from your native country? I think you should bring at test center what you showed there. Anyway phoning to Prometric and asking is the best thing to do but just try to tell them that if you have succeffuly passed the strict US immigration controls what right do they have not to accept the same Id?
