CA Driver's License on a K1

[0NI 114]

Has anyone here experienced getting a California Driver's License on a K1 visa? Can anyone from here share their experience? 

 

I read from another VJ poster recently that they successfully got theirs but in Oregon. Here's the link:

I was looking for people who had experience in getting a Real Driver's License while on a K1 visa (within the 90 days k1 validity) .

 

I don't want to do the AB60 route.

I am not sure it is possible but even if it was by the time you get it your 90 days would be up or nearly up.

Someone did it in Oregon. I was hoping somebody in California had the same experience.

 

And when her/his 90 days expired the DMV gave a temporary license.
 

"Step 9. Getting 90-day temporary driver license after I-94 expires

 

So, when driver license expired on Feb 13, I went to DMV to request the “temporary license”. 

 

I went on Feb 13 when my driver license was still valid, I did not have to wait until it actually expired.

 

When I got to the officer’s counter, the officer took my expiring driver license card (did not ask for any other documents) and filled out herself a little form, about 1/3 of a letter size sheet. The name of the form is 735-45A (5-17) “OREGON TEMPORARY DRIVER LICENSE / ID / PERMIT”."
