keeping my CA driver license

[nathmc31 0]

I have a current CA driver license, however they would only keep it valid for the 90 days stated on my I-94. I have filed for AOS today.

what immigration paperwork could I use at the DMV to have them renew my License and give me an ID for god sake.

I heard that you could take your recipt notice from USCIS for the AOS and use that.

any experiences?

thanks

i heard that too - about needing the reciept notice - from a DMV employee (i'm in Louisiana). only when i went in with it, the gumpy about to retire lady informed me i need an EAD or AOS in order to get one. i think CA is the same way.

Here in MA they will only accept an EAD or Greencard...

Your best bet would be to contact the DMV directly, as the policy changes from state to state. In our case we did a little research ahead of time and then went to the DMV with printouts of the state policy, the I-94, her passport, and the marriage license (I think).

Good luck to you....dealing with the DMV can be difficult in the best of times.

From what I have heard so far, every office may handle it differently - so your best bet is to give it a try.

It didn't work for me though, and I only got a DL when I could present an immigration document like the I551 card (green card) or work authorization card. My DL also expires as soon as my docs expire, so I might end up without a DL when I remove conditions.... oh well.

Good luck!
