pswa83 302 Posted December 5, 2012 i live in CA and here's my experience: after i went to the SSA office, i went online and made an appt at the DMV for 2 weeks later. on my appt date, i went to the DMV and has my SSN, my EAD, also i took my passport and birth certificate just in case. while waiting for my number to be called, i filled out the application for my ID and permit. i then took my permit test, only missed 1 question. had my picture taken, did a little eye exam (i have to wear my glasses while i'm driving, my DL says so )and after about an hr or so, i had my permit and the receipt for my ID. a week later, i took my driving test and passed. but seeing how you live in a different state, i would look at what your DMV requires for someone to get a DL. especially if you're under 18. there could be a different form because you're under 18 or because you're not a citizen. 1 lapancha77 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jinpin3 8 Posted December 7, 2012 I live in Utah were we had a thing called a driving previllage card. Just like a DL but we had to renew every year. Anyways when I had my EAD and my SSN I took the Form I-797 plus two pieces of mail. Took all that and walked out an hour later. Well after the 28 fee for renewing. 1 lapancha77 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Audi90 3 Posted December 7, 2012 Here's my experience . I got my ead in the mail nov 30 . Went to ssa on Monday dec 3 applied for social . They asked for ead card and my passport 3 minutes later he gave me a receipt ! Next morning dec 4 I got my ssn printout at the ssa office right after that I went straight to DMV and applied for both DL and regular ID after that I took the writing test and past only missed 2 . On dec 5 I went back and did the behind the wheel test it took like 10 min . After that she told me I passed and had to go back inside and get a printout of my DL . Now I'm just waiting for my actual cards in the mail 1 lapancha77 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gezinha 121 Posted December 13, 2012 Oh, thats not cool. My mom took me to a deserted park to teach me at 17 haha. Maybe someone will step up and teach you, I am sure in Cali there must be tons of deserted places. My mom took me to a parl that only opens during summer and she taught me there.
