Most states will issue a drivers' license when you receive the NOA 1 from your AOS filing. It provides sufficient evidence that you are legally in the U.S. pending action on the AOS. Others require that you have a work permit....or even your green card.

I'm in Texas and after useless trips to the DMV office with NOA's and other documents, I decided to wait until EAD and/or GC to go back and get my driver's license. Guess what? It worked! I received my GC this week and yesterday I passed the exames and got my driver's license.

Never thought it would so easy. They never asked me for anything else to prove that I am who I am ;)

You can try with the NOA, passport, SSN card etc, but in my experience this was not helpful.

Good luck.

For most states, EAD/SS card with your passport will suffice.

Hello folks!

We are in PA, i am on F1, married a US citizen and we're about to file for AOS.

Does anybody know at what point will I be able to get a driver's license?

thank you!!!

Yeah, unfortunately Texas requires either EAD/SS OR K3, I-94 with (6) months validity, and an affidavit that you are not eligible for SS card. K1 visaholders usually have to wait for their EAD.

I just got my driver's license after I received my EAD and had my name in the SSA changed to my married name. The driver services in GA verifies the personal info of the applicant based on the applicant's SS number.
