pswa83 302 Posted October 4, 2012 i'm wondering for those in CA who have already gotten approved (i'm still waiting), have you guys applied for a DL yet? and if so, have you gotten one or what was the outcome of it? the reason why i ask is because i know that Gov. Brown signed into law that approved DACA applicants can and will receive a "limited" DL. meaning it will only be valid for the time frame that our EAD is valid. (2 yrs) but the law isnt set to take effect till jan, 01, 2013. thanks for answering for those who do Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoseG 383 Posted October 4, 2012 I can't say for sure since I haven't been approved and applied for a driver's license, but I'm pretty positive we can go apply as soon as we get our EAD and SSN. I believe we would be issued a limited license and ID just like when somebody goes to apply for an ID with a VISA, it's only valid for 6 months, or however long the VISA is valid for. The law that Brown signed is mostly for those that are granted DACA, but denied on their I-765. It will allow them to obtain a Driver's License and ID with just their DACA approval notice.
