Let me state what i did.

 

1. I initially got the license and it was valid till when my I94 expired (Nov 19)

2. When the validity was about to expire, i went to a mega center in Houston (Gessner) to ask for a renewal as i had not passed the road test and the date for the road test is in December

3. I was told by the lady that attended to me at the dps that they would need to check if the validity date is still Nov 19 on their system

4. She confirmed it is still showing Nov 19

5. I asked them for a 2nd verification

6. She ordered a 2nd verification and gave me a peace of paper. She asked that i called the number on the paper in 3 to 5 days to confirm if my status has been verified

7. I called after 3 days (the number is for the dps verification center in Austin) and the fellow that picked confirmed i have been verified and that i can go pick up my license.

8. I went there today and the paper license was printed with a 1 year validity.

 

So i suggets you try again.

1. I assume you have filed your AOS and done the bio-metrics (i somehow think that the verification is tied to this, not certain though)

2. Go to a mega center (you can check online for the mega centers in your city in Texas). Go with your NOA1 for the AOS

3. Tell them you want to renew or obtain a license

4. If they claim they can't verify your status, ask for a second verification. Tell them they should carry out a 2nd verification, it would take 3 to 5 days

 

Someone gave me this points and i used it and it worked for me. Went to the dps on Monday and went back for my license today.

 

Hi Rayson,

 

I just arrived in houston via a K1 at the start of the month, I've also sent off my AOS. I want to start driving ASAP, and because we're both in Houston i'm hoping to copy exactly what you did, but i'm unsure of some of the steps to take. I'd appreciate it if you could help me.

 

To initially get your first license what was needed (e.g SSN, confirmation that AOS was pending, Texas state I.D)

 

And what steps did you take and how long did it take?

 

Any info would help a lot,

Thankyou

Hi.

 

To get your license you need a SSN. So you can go to the Social Security office close to you to process. You don't need you AOS pending yet.

 

The attached document will be helpful.

 

The dps website is also a good resource. If you want to talk, you can send a dm.
