Theresa 63 Posted July 31, 2013 "Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA)" will not only receive a work permit from the immigration authorities but can now, in some U.S. states, apply for a driver's license. A number of states have already indicated that they'll issue driver's licenses to DACA recipients, and others may eventually join in. The joiners include (as of early February, 2013): California Colorado Connecticut Delaware Florida Georgia Hawaii Illinois Indiana Idaho Iowa Kansas Kentucky Maryland Massachusetts Michigan Minnesota Mississippi Missouri Nevada New Hampshire New Jersey New York Oklahoma Oregon Pennsylvania Rhode Island South Carolina Tennessee Texas Virginia Wisconsin In the states of New Mexico, Washington, and Utah, immigration status is not a prerequisite for a driver's license, and so DACA recipients are as eligible as any other applicants. Some states have, however, expressly stated that they will refuse to issue drivers' licenses to DACA recipients, including Arizona and Nebraska. (Residents of those states, don't expect to be able to get one from another state -- driver's license applications usually require you to prove state residency.)
