Questions about renewing State ID with a Conditional Green Card - Please HELP!

 Share

3 posts in this topic

Hello everyone! :)

I moved to the U.S. in December 2014 with a K1 visa, got married, applied for AOS/EAD in March 2015, got my EAD in May 2015, and my 2-year Conditional Green Card in October 2015.

I'm not driving, so I have a State ID, not a Driver's License. I applied for my first State ID in May 2015 right after my EAD was approved. They only gave me a State ID that's valid until the EAD's expiration date (which is a 1-year period), so my State ID expires next month, in May 2016.

So very soon I will have to go to renew my State ID.

My questions:

1. Will they give me a State ID that's valid until the expiration date of my Conditional Green Card (which is October 2017) or a regular one that expires every 6 years on my birthday (I live in the state of Missouri)?

2. If they give me a State ID that's valid only until my Conditional Green Card's expiration date (October 2017) and by any chance I wouldn't have my 10-year Green Card by then, what would be my ID in the meantime until ROC is approved and I get my 10-year Green Card?

3. Now that I have to renew my State ID, do I have to show proof again that I still live in the state of Missouri? When I applied for my first State ID last year, I showed a copy of the lease of the apartment my husband and I are renting.

Thank you for answering!

Unfortunately no one has answered my questions, but I renewed my State ID today morning and here is what happened. I only share it because it might will help someone in the future.

1. My new State ID will be a regular one (it will expire on my birthday 6 years from now).

2. Since my new State ID will be a regular one that expires in 2022, it won't be affected by the expiration of my Conditional Green Card.

3. Even though it was a renewal and my address hasn't changed, I still had to show proof of living in Missouri.

Sorry that no one answered, but thanks for the positive update.

It's frustrating to have to add that every state is different in how they handle these things.

06-04-2007 = TSC stamps postal return-receipt for I-129f.

06-11-2007 = NOA1 date (unknown to me).

07-20-2007 = Phoned Immigration Officer; got WAC#; where's NOA1?

09-25-2007 = Touch (first-ever).

09-28-2007 = NOA1, 23 days after their 45-day promise to send it (grrrr).

10-20 & 11-14-2007 = Phoned ImmOffs; "still pending."

12-11-2007 = 180 days; file is "between workstations, may be early Jan."; touches 12/11 & 12/12.

12-18-2007 = Call; file is with Division 9 ofcr. (bckgrnd check); e-prompt to shake it; touch.

12-19-2007 = NOA2 by e-mail & web, dated 12-18-07 (187 days; 201 per VJ); in mail 12/24/07.

01-09-2008 = File from USCIS to NVC, 1-4-08; NVC creates file, 1/15/08; to consulate 1/16/08.

01-23-2008 = Consulate gets file; outdated Packet 4 mailed to fiancee 1/27/08; rec'd 3/3/08.

04-29-2008 = Fiancee's 4-min. consular interview, 8:30 a.m.; much evidence brought but not allowed to be presented (consul: "More proof! Second interview! Bring your fiance!").

05-05-2008 = Infuriating $12 call to non-English-speaking consulate appointment-setter.

05-06-2008 = Better $12 call to English-speaker; "joint" interview date 6/30/08 (my selection).

06-30-2008 = Stokes Interrogations w/Ecuadorian (not USC); "wait 2 weeks; we'll mail her."

07-2008 = Daily calls to DOS: "currently processing"; 8/05 = Phoned consulate, got Section Chief; wrote him.

08-07-08 = E-mail from consulate, promising to issue visa "as soon as we get her passport" (on 8/12, per DHL).

08-27-08 = Phoned consulate (they "couldn't find" our file); visa DHL'd 8/28; in hand 9/1; through POE on 10/9 with NO hassles(!).
