Every states DMV has different rules and requirements. I suggest going to your states DMV website and searching for acceptable documents for renewing a drivers license.

Seriously, this took me less than 20 seconds to find:

 

https://dld.utah.gov/wp-content/uploads/sites/17/2019/09/DLD-335-English-REV-8.19.pdf

 

And I quote:

 

Proof of Legal/Lawful Presence (must provide one)
-A document issued by the U.S. Federal Government that establishes proof of one of the below statuses providing evidence of lawful entrance into the United States of America verified through SAVE
-Unexpired immigrant or nonimmigrant visa status for admission into the United States issued by the U.S. Federal Government;
-Pending or approved application for asylum in the United States;-Admission into the United States as a refugee
-Pending or approved application for temporary protected status in the United States
-Approved deferred action status;
or
 -Pending application for adjustment of status to legal permanent resident

 

Go back and show them their own doc, they are wrong.

What's the point on stating how long did it took you to find it?

 

But anyways, if you read that carefully is says "permanent resident", I'm a TN visa holder, so that makes me a temporary resident.

 

Good news, is that the DMV send out my paperwork to DHS for the SAVE verification and they call me yesterday to say that everything looked good. They are mailing the temporary license, and I should be getting the regular license within 3-4 weeks.

 

Thanks everyone for their comments and help

Was able to renew my driver's license in Michigan with the I-797C (TN Visa) and passport. Much easier than I thought it would be.
