Hi Stacy,

I think you don't need a passport until Jan. 08. Until than drivers licnse and birth cert is ok. You only need them comming from Mexico.

I hope this helps.

No, to re-enter the US by car (or OCC van) you do not need a passport. Right now that is set to change in January 2008, Homeland Security is still trying to figure out if they are delaying it or not. If you are planning on a fill in TJ after the first of the year, it would probably be a good idea to apply for a passport if you don't have one now. You can check this link:

to verify this info and keep an eye on changes to the regulations.

I was hearing that the Mexican government was saying they were going to demand to see passports, but since the last couple of times I have crossed the border they haven't even had anyone at the border to check anything, I doubt this is happening. You can just drive or walk across and not see anyone official looking when you go into Mexico.
