Huh. Do you think I can do two birds with one stone here and use the envelope the passport came in as my proof of address when getting a state ID?

I find it silly/stupid that a current US Passport by itself isn't good enough.

There are a lot of more-or-less official things that want proof of address as well as of identity: to get a Massachusetts "real ID" card with my new address, I showed them a utility bill (for address), and passport because apparently the previous state ID wasn't good enough. And of course the rules vary from state to state.

This is enough of a thing that I make sure that at least one utility bill is in my name, and at least one in cattitude's. But that's something I was aware of by 2013, when we moved to Washington; it wasn't a thing when we rented our New York apartment in 1987.

Well, it's enough for proof of ID, which is why I got it, but it doesn't have my address on it so I suppose it can hardly count as proof of address.
