I was able to apply for a DL here in Michigan by providing my passport, i94, and the notices of action as a proof of residency.
Yesterday I passed my road test and I'll head to the Secretary of State later today, so I'll update if I had any issues.
Did you get any updates? My standalone approval notice was sent 4/21 and my status remains the same. According to the notice they take 1 to 2 weeks to produce the card.
Hmmm. I'm not sure, the way I did it was by signing up on the USCIS website and adding a case. Maybe try doing it on a computer. You just need an online access code provided on the NoA letter.
I checked the Document tabs today and found out my EAD was approved yesterday. The status is still 'being actively reviewed by USCIS', I guess it takes a while to update.
