Concerns regarding traveling around the US

Timeline

Facts:

We got married in the US on August 3, 2013.

Expiration of my K1 visa is on November.

My I-94 is set to expire on October 13, 2013.

I have a learner's permit which will expire on October 13, 2013 (the DMV based it on my I-94).

We filed the application for AOS last August 31, 2013. We got the NOA1 in the mail today.

Question:

We live in Phoenix, Arizona and we booked a flight to Colorado for Thanksgiving this November... by that time, my I-94, K1 visa, and learner's permit will already be expired.

1.) Will the TSA let me fly if I show them my foreign passport with the expired visa and expired learner's permit? Those are pretty much the only proof I have.

2.) Is there another way I can prove that I'm allowed to stay here while USCIS is processing my application for AOS? I don't think I can use the NOA1 since it says "this notice does not grant any immigrant status or benefit."

Thank you!

Soon as you landed in US the K1 is no good after. Traveling around the country you only need ID. You are fine. You need no Visa. Just don't leave the US is all.

You can use your drivers license just ID is needed.

***Moved from AOS from Family Based Visas Progress Reports to Working & Traveling During US Immigration; topic involves travel.***

**Moderator hat off**

Once you filed for AOS, you entered a new period of authorized stay, the expiration date on the I-94 is now irrelevant. Dwheels already pointed out the irrelevancy of the K1 visa. TSA will let you fly with your foreign passport alone.

Thanks :)

Already called TSA. Gotta bring some docs like marriage certificate since my ticket is in my new name. But other than that I dont think there will be a problem.
