Drivers licence about to expire

[claire 0]

Anyone had any recent experience with the DMV (especially in Minnesota) when trying to get a new drivers licence? My AZ licence is expiring 9/14 and I am going to need to go to the DMV in Minnesota and try to get one there. I am thinking that I am going to run into problems with the extension letter. On top of the usual stuff, the extension letter is in my married name, as is my AZ licence. My passport and GC are in my maiden name. anyone have any experience or advice? thank you.

if i was you i would ring them before you go in to make sure where you stand..and if they say you can renew it with no problems get their name so you can quote them at the dmv office.

If you live in the twin cities, I would highly recommend going to the DMV office in downtown Minneapolis (in the govt center, 3rd Av and 6th St S). They are extremely efficient and are used to dealing with large immigrant communities and would perhaps have a better understanding of USCIS receipt notices/extension letters than the suburban offices.

If your marriage certificate has both your maiden and your married name, take it with you.

Good luck!

Make sure to take your marriage certificate with you as well.
