Hi there.

We went to DDS to renew my wife driver license this morning. The officer said that the I-797 letter is one time use and just extend her DL for 4 months only. Anyone has the same issue? What happen if after 4 months she still not receive her 10 years greencard?

When the new license is about to expire I would go back and try again. If you meet resistence kindly ask for a supervisor and explain what the I-797 says.

If no luck, try another DDS. Sometimes offices are staffed with people who are unable to perform their job but another one in the next town over will have trained employees.

ROC from CR-1 visa (Green Card expiration date was Nov 24th 2016)

 

Link to the evidence I submitted. Be sure to send evidence spanning your entire marriage (especially for K-1) or as far back as you can. Just one or two bank statements will not cut it. I primarily focused on the two years of living here since I came in on a CR-1. If you don't have the fundamentals (i.e. joint accounts/policies), you can explain why in the covering letter. E.g. "While we do not have joint utilities, we both contribute to them from our joint bank account".

Yes, I asked for the supervisor and explained to her about I-797 and the processing time that USCIS takes on this application is about a year. No luck, she said " Our policy for maximum extending the driver license is 4 months. You can try another location if you think they will do a year for you ". Really bad experience

We living in Georgia, can someone tell me which DDS office can do it better?

Thanks

Wow, that sucks for spouses removing conditions. How are they supposed to go to work?

Surprised the GA senators/rep haven't had this brought to their attention already. We'd be in dire straits if I lost my license for months.

I was able to renew my license yesterday for 1 year, i went to the office in Cumming,https://dds.georgia.gov/location/cumming, there were zero issues, it may have been because the lady was a naturalized US citizen herself so knew the immigration process....
