Thanks for responses and assurances. . . To follow up I had no problems flying this past week with paper temp and corner snipped off license. Only two agents questioned the snipped off corner. I just explained about the renewal process in my state and showed my temporary paper one also. (one agent even said, that's o.k. I don't need to see that temporary one.) After posting my concerns last week -- I remembered that a former colleague's husband is now with TSA -- I called him and he also said that they see corner snipped and paper temp license situation frequently and was confident it would would not be a problem. But, told me to have both with me, of course. Now I will say my corner snipped license during the "snipping" -- did not remove any of the important information. And it is not actually expired for another month. It still has my picture, all data/dates, expiration date, holigrams, etc. And temp paper license has my picture also.
