Did a quick look and found some links for you on the DL.

NJ official site's page on non-citizens:

http://www.state.nj.us/mvc/Licenses/LicensesNon-Citizens.htm

NJ has a nice interactive tool for figuring out what documents will work for id.

And some VJ threads from the Your New Life in America section with NJ info in them

Social Security number: Yes, use the old number. It's yours for life. Get the restriction wording removed after getting the GC just so you have a nice clean card I guess. You could change to your married name too. Actually Americans don't show their SS card much except maybe at the driver's license place for their first license. Many forms, banks, credit card companies, tax returns ask for you number but you just tell them without physically showing a card. I bet half of America doesn't even know where their card is. Memorize the number and put the card away, then forget where it is in 10 years like the rest of Americans.

Also a tip to the new immigrants....don't give out that SSN except for authorized reasons. It's the key to your whole US identity, so protect yourself from identity theft by not carrying the card and not giving out the number to phishing schemes.

Thanks a lot - I will definitely get that restriction wording removed. have a great weekend everyone

I found the "why you should get that wording of your SSN card" thread - interesting reading. Suffice to say, you really should do it.
