Hey guys, I was just wondering for those who were approved for DACA, if u guys could share ur experiences when u applied for a drivers license.Please let the rest of us know how easy or how hard it was to obtain a DL and from what state u applied from...........Currently, it is a pain to obtain one in GA.Ive been there twice already(was told i cunt be veriified by the SAVE database) and I know sum1 who went several times before she finally got her DL.I think my problem is my SSN bc I havent stop by SSA office, but will do ASAP.

@briza87:I had 3 misdemeanors when I applied for DACA.In fact,, I had probation for 11 months(got it reduced though later on),but I provided USCIS with all my court docs and my termination letter from the judge.Plus, I provided recent letters from various ppl that knew me well along with my DACA applications.Also, I made it clear that although I had 3 misd,I had ONLY one arrest. I must mention it took about 5 months for them to approve me...Hope it works out well for ya.

Thanks,Im gonna go to SSA office tomorrow.I have a hs buddy that works there,hopefully it can get done quickly.

I have a question:If you had a SSN card that states "Not valid for employment" and then you are granted DACA,do you apply for a NEW SSN or do you keep the old SSN and just get the statement removed by the Social Security office? I hope someone knows for sure or is in the same situation as me. Help!

u will be fine..I just kept in mind to wear some thing that i wouldnt be embarrassed to show to a future employer

@beatrizrivera909,i think it depends on the day of the week that u are scheduled.mine was on a wed at 8am..but i had a friend go to thesame place and there wasnt a line when she went,she was done in 10 mins.mine took like 30 mins bc of the security check..by the way after u enter building make a right turn,u will c a poster with theUSCIS logo,just follow it..good luck :-)

Just gonna give a few pointers that can help those who are going to their biometrics appointment soon: 1)Have your documents ready prior to your appointment.If possible check again the night before and have them ready for next day 2)Be there early.If your appoinment says 10:00am be there at least 15 mins early.There may be people waitng in line by the time you arrive there. 3)Dont wear any jewelry.It slows the security checking process and trust me if there a line of people waiting,it just makes it a lot more time consuming 4)Dress nice and simple.The more clothing you wear(or accessories,this includes hats) the longer it will take you to take it off and to put it back on after you go thru the security checking part. 5)Be observant.If you notice that people's belts are causing the metal detector to go off,please go ahead and remove your belt BEFORE its your turn. 6)Following Directions carefully..i.e.If the security officer tells you to walk fast thru the metal detector please do so...saves a lot of headaches. I had my biometrics in Chalrleston,SC and they are pretty strict on the security checking part.My appoinment was at 8:00 am.I arrived at 7:40 am and there was a line of like 10 people ahead of me.Three or four people had to be manually checked because they failed to pass the metal detector twice.They had forgotten to take stuff off of them that had metal pieces, and made a drag so early in the morning.
