Adit stamp during Biometrics possible ?

[VetsWife328 7]

Hey,

I was wondering whether I could get the I 551 Adit Stamp in my Passport during the Biometrics appointment.

The WA DMV wont let me get a DL unless I have that........And since I want to get a job as soon as I have my EAD (hopefully next months since our Biometrics appointment is next Friday ),I really need to get a DL....Never had one so I gotta get a Learners Permit and then to the test and so on,so really not that much time...

Thanks for any advie

Why would they give you a GC if you are not approved yet?

Stamp is only for those who have had their GC's approved. You'll have to wait until your interview.

All I could add would be to get ahold of the DMV handbook and study for the test while you wait. Lucky you..

Don't be in such a rush, and don't make plans as your GC might come against many brick walls. Let the process run it's course and be patient. And as many members explained, the ADIT stamp is the last step in the process...

Oh, and I found this info that might change a lot of things:

U.S. to Stop Issuing Temporary Permanent Resident Stamp

Posted on July 17, 2009 by Immigration/Global Migration Group

The United States Citizenship and Immigration Services recently changed its procedures regarding the issuance of ADIT stamps. Local USCIS offices will no longer automatically provide an ADIT stamp to an approved permanent resident applicant waiting for his or her green card.

An ADIT stamp is temporary proof of residence in the United States that is generally placed on a passport or an I-94, an Arrival-Departure Record. Previously, USCIS would automatically provide an ADIT stamp to approved applicants because of an almost eight-week delay between approval and receipt of a green card.

ADIT stamps will continue to be provided on a case-by-case basis if applicants can show they need a stamp to be issued.
