That must be some sort of record.

Hi! Saw you posting this and actually I plan to move to Arkansas after we have our K1 approved and to be honest really confused about how and when I can apply for a driving licence. I have my Dutch one and will be driving around with that untill I am able to get one in the US which hopefully be asap because I think you are only allowed to drive with a foreighn licence for a max of 3 months or so..

SSN Mariage licence, seems to be staightforward, but when you get to the DMV they state this.. see the pink. Aither bring a US passport (not possible obviously,) Birth certificate (well have that but my dutch one and NOT US because I wasnt born there!) or proof of your naturalization (well I believe you only get that several years after receiving your GC! Interesting!

So was wondering if you had gone trough the process already and what did you do?

Thanks!!

Arkansas Full Driver’s License

Once your intermediate driver’s license expires when you turn 18 years old, and you’ve been conviction- and accident-free for at least 12 months, you may apply for your full, unrestricted Arkansas driver’s license.

Go to your local State Revenue Office with:

  • Your intermediate Arkansas driver’s license.
  • Additional proof of identity and legal presence in the U.S. (birth certificate, valid U.S. passport, Certificate of Naturalization).
  • Your Social Security number, or an affidavit stating that you do not have a SSN.
  • Payment for the $20 driver’s license fee.

I love in Arkansas and my husband can't get a drivers license extended past the expiration of his I94. We tried everything but there's no way around it. We have to wait on the EAD to get a new license.
