Cuz some states like AZ, even though you are a GC holder, they only give you the date to expiration date on the GC card for non real ID DL, CA has really friendly policy for immigrants 

New Hampshire is like that too. It’s a bit strange though because MA issues full term REAL IDs to permanent residents. NC recently had an administrative order issued to reverse their policy of limited term licenses to LPRs, and they now explicitly have codified issuances of full-term licenses to LPRs.

 

I think it depends on whether your state goes off of SAVE end-of-status date or the document expiration you present. Ik for a fact MA goes off of SAVE, and NH goes off of whatever document you present. 
 

SAVE always returns “indefinite” period of authorized stay for all LPRs, regardless of category of admission or expiration on the green card.

Well, CA DMV following CA laws... That's how it's supposed to be. Other states following their laws. 50 states with their own jurisdictions. Some with more relaxed rules, others with stricter rules.

What I'm not 100% sure is whether any state DMV or BMV can accept copy of I-797 to renew / issue DL or ID. I guess only if staff is not trained / doesn't care.
