Wow thats weird. All you need to show them is your EAD card, original birth certificate and write down your SSN on the application.. Thats what i did, and no questions asked. I even tried to show her my SSN printout form, rental lease agreement form, marriage certificate and foreign passport but she was like, "i dont need those" maybe it depends on dmv local offices..

I JUST LOVE HOW CA ISN'T THAT STRICT... jlansdklajdnaklda

when it was my turn..she was like: OK, CAN I HAVE YOUR STUFF?

then i was just start digging into my purse for more, and she was like: WHERE'S YOUR ______ and ______ <--- like I-94, PASSPORT,

LETTERS TO PROVE RESIDENCY, etc. then she asked like "WHAT IS YOUR STATUS?" then i showed her my EAD and she was like "YOU'RE IN THE MIDDLE OF STATUS, etc etc"

man i was like sweating -___- geeeeez then i showed her my interview appointment letter..and she was like: I DON'T KNOW

ABOUT THIS, etc etc -____________________-

she even showed it to like a higher positioned man..thank goodness he was good, and i guess he had dealt with someone

like me i think imma wait until i get my green card or even the stamp on my passport why...why are they like this? LOL

but after that old guy spoke to me all smiley and stuff... the woman who was demanding at first was all smiley too and i was like ####### you're all smily now (in my brain LOL) aaargh

i am trying next week after all this memorial day thing is done.. cause the buses are my bffs at this moment haha

Yes for some reason they are strict. But it is what its, we just have to deal with it.. California are strict too when it comes to verifying documents, but not in a complicated way though. They just want a proof of your true name and legal status and not asking for too much.

So the best way to do is wait for your green card, which is im planning to do. FYI I just applied for an ID card last monday. I also asked them what documents do i need to bring if im ready for the written DL test and they told me to bring the same documents that i showed them.

I thought going to the dmv is pain in the A but lucky me its not lol! Bus ride was worth it.. I hope they get everything right for you when you come back. Goodluck!

Oh my God, I can't believe this!

I forget who, but someone on here talked about me writing my congressman to see about an expedite, and how it probably wouldn't work since expedite for pregnancy isn't heard of. Well, I decided to write my congressman anyway (doesn't hurt to try, you know? Worst they could say was no), on grounds of financial hardship, explaining the whole complicated timeline, how I can't afford to give birth in the US, I laid out prenatal care costs and birth costs from the US vs back home in Norway, and explained why I'd need to stay out of the country for so long, when it's safe for a pregnant woman to fly, and when the infant could be brought back to the US. About two weeks back, the congressman's office called me, and told me they would try to expedite my case. I didn't get my hopes up, but didn't want to say anything either, for fear of jinxing it.

USCIS called today, they approved my expedite request and I have an interview on Tuesday!!

I am so happy, so grateful, and so scared! They were going to try to get an interview notice to me as soon as possible, but gave me instructions for how to handle things with the security at the entrance if it didn't get there in time. We don't have that fancy list over what to bring for the interview, so we'll likely just bring everything we have, haha! XD Better to be overprepared, I suppose.
