Your title says without password, your question text says without updated password. What is it? And what do you mean with an 'updated' password anyway? Please edit your question.

@RoboKaren there is no indication that the person asking this question is a foreigner. Rather than making the question into something it isn't, it seems to me that it is better to answer it without regard to the ambiguity, as WGroleau did, or to vote to close it as unclear. In any event, the question is a duplicate; it's just not possible to know what it's a duplicate of without knowing the asker's nationality.

You need some form of ID that meets the "real ID" requirements. Driver's license in most states can be used (last I heard, only four states did not comply).
For other options, read the Real ID FAQs or the many other questions on this topic.

All states either are in compliance or have an extension. The only US jurisdiction that does not have an extension is American Samoa. See dhs.gov/real-id. It's worth noting that the only acceptable non-US driver's licenses are those from Canada, and the only acceptable non-Canadian foreign document is a passport. Documents are only acceptable if they are valid. See tsa.gov/travel/security-screening/identification. However, there are procedures for flying without acceptable identification.
â phoog

Does the extension mean they must comply but are given more time, or does it mean that their non-enhanced licenses are accepted for a longer time? In other words, is it a concession to the state or to the traveler? (Rhetorical; the FAQ makes it a concession for the traveler's convenience.)
â WGroleau
Mar 12 at 2:00
Note that the FAQ âÂÂIs DHS trying to build a national database with all of our information?â is disingenuous at best. I have no idea whether they are trying to build a DB with "all of our information" but they certainly are keeping track of our travels. And at least one person who successfully coerced them into giving him his own file found full credit card numbers in it.
â WGroleau
Mar 12 at 2:06
I believe the extension means both of those things. Certainly, licenses from states with extensions are accepted, and I presume that a condition for being granted an extension is a viable plan to achieve compliance.
â phoog

I missed the word âÂÂforeignerâ in the title, or else it was added after I answered. A foreigner would not likely have a driverâÂÂs license from one of our states. But then, if he got in legally, why wouldnâÂÂt the passport be valid?
