As part of the DMV CA requirements to apply for a DL, you need to verify your birth date and legal presence, refer to this link:

http://www.dmv.ca.gov/dl/dl_info.htm#BDLP

According to the link relevant to your question you may bring:

Permanent Resident Card

Temporary Resident Identification Card

Employment Authorization Card

"Processed for I-551" stamped in a valid foreign passport

Valid I-94 with attached photo stamped "Processed for I-551 temporary evidence of lawful admission for permanent residence"

Notice of Action (I-797 Approved Petition)

From my experience (coming from the Philippines), they refused the NOA for the AOS since it is still pending. I went to 3 DMV offices. The same response. They asked me to go back when I have the GC.
