We were going to do the same thing...but the Ga DMV told us that Joel's permit would only be good for him to drive on til his I-94 expires...after that he wouldn't be legal to drive again til his EAD is in hand OR he gets his GC. *sigh*

I dont think it should have been a problem however it took over a month to get his SS card so there wasn't enough time on his I-94 to issue it now until he gets his GC.

On another note, has anyone used their passport to get into a bar? I'm sure it isn't a problem right?

The SSA worker even insisted that my wife was now a K3....that is when I gave up with them....she can change it in 20 years for all I care now as I will never again in my lifetime go to one of those card centers and sit there for three hours only to deal with a dummy.

You went to the Las Vegas Card Center?

I recall a person on VJ telling about try using their passport to get into a club or bar and it had everyone there confused and I didn't think they got in.

I got into bars all over California for a year with a passport and never had any issues. I have friends here in PA from Italy that use their passports to get into bars with no issues either. I think its pretty rare for a bar to not let someone in on a passport, it'd be pretty bad for the tourist industry if they did!
