https://www.dmv.ca.gov/wasapp/dlstatus/displayStatus.do you can also check status there to see if it was shipped or not

no problem Amen!

that's good! Some people have gotten "temporary"..and their license is only good for the time EAD is good. Those who get "interim" have 5 year..though it's not 100% ...just by the other forum websites im on..this has held true http://dreamact.info/forum/showthread.php?p=385100#post385100

Cinthya, does your temporary license say "interim" or "temporary"?

i went on October 18th with my sister for biometrics but only I got approved so far. Got my EAD, SSN, and DL is coming in mail. I just want my sister's to hurry and come too we went on same day!

aww icic, thanks for replying man. yeah my paper says Interim so hopefully I can get the full 5 years.. my bday is in September

you got it yeah that's all you need!! by the way..Rudy - which DMV location did you go to and did you paper license say temporary or interim??

currently waiting for mine in the mail!! Best of luck I guess haha. Just curious..on your guys' paper license did it say "Temporary" or "Interim" Because it seems that if it said "temporary driver license " it's only for 2 years..but interim is 5 years

I'm still waiting for it to arrive in the mail. It's supposed to take 7-10 days

well, I already had my social # from when I came into the U.S., and I just needed to go to SSA to have it be work verified, but the next day everything was processed already!

This thread will be informational for those who are in CA trying to get a CA DL..especially if you have an out of state license too! I just want to help everyone out here. Just because I have everything now, I'm not trying to ditch everyone on this forum because there are still those waiting! So, here's to help. So first off, I went to the SSA 11/28/12 .. then I went to the DMV 11/29/12 so I guess I took a risk. I went to the DMV line at 7 A.M. in the morning at Lincoln Park (because one of the members told me he got a 5 year license here :smile:) *fingers crossed* So I lined up, applied for my license. Here's the thing. I have an out of state license from WA like many of you have posted. So I finished my application, and the lady just asked for my EAD, no SSN actual card (just the number). She then also asked for my WA ID since I told her I had one (I didn't have to take behind wheel test because of this). I paid $31 and she hands me a receipt and tells me to stand in line in which I got my fingerprint/picture taken. Then I went to the testing room for my written exam. I took the written exam and got 1 wrong which means I passed. The lady asked me for my WA license and she hole punched it (which means it's temporary now). She told me I didn't need it and she handed me over my Temporary CA License and said I should receive my ID in the mail soon. In no way shape or form did anyone ask me about DACA! Also, I was very surprised because I went to SSA on 11/28 around 1pm (near closing time)..and went the next morning to the DMV 11/29 first in line in the morning and the information was already processed. The DMV was able to verify my SSN obviously because if they didn't, I wouldn't have gotten my temp license. Ah I'm so thankful! -- Also, I'd like to help those out in the WRITTEN EXAM . I have my paper and will be posting a video shortly..but in the meantime, I will post YouTube links and really these are all you need. (Questions exactly the same except maybe 1 or 2) http://www.youtube.com/user/enjoyqwer ^ ^ user has about 6 sample tests -- very helpful. So how to study? Honestly, I just looked at these videos once. They pretty much have all the same questions, but I urge you to look at all the vids because some have different questions! Lastly, I would like to say that in no way shape or form did ANYONE ask about DACA, my status, etc at the DMV. It was a very smooth process. IF ANYONE HAS QUESTIONS, DO NOT HESITATE TO ASK IN THIS FORUM. I AM HERE TO HELP Also, I will update on how many years my license is for.

i'm on another forum as well..and I see a lot of people getting 5 years for their CA licenses anyone here that has gotten a 2 year?

uh huh

cool thanks! im guessing if it's not verified, they'll just tell you to come back?

i already have my ssn, but now it's going to be eligible to work but it's the same number. Knowing my number already, should I go to DMV now to apply for DL? Or should I wait for the information to process
