State ID

[mike_d_godfather 3]

Can my wife get a state ID while her AOS is still in process? We just want her to have an ID with my last name. Thank you.

I'm researching the same thing. It depends on state and county rules. If she is here and has a social security number, that should be almost enough. In my county, I know they want proof of residence such as mail addressed to her at your local address. Surf the county government website, it should be on there somewhere.

Check with your DMV. That is where the ID's are typically issued.

In Oregon you have to have a valid I-94, but the ID will expire on the same date as the I-94. You may also use an EAD card or a green card. During AOS, after the I-94 has expired and before the EAD card arrives, my wife cannot have Oregon ID or a driver's license. She has to use her passport as ID.

This is different in each state.

I have my state ID already. I got all the details in DMV website. My husband was with me when I applied and I have my passport with I-94, marriage certificate, birth certificate and SS card. Since I don't have any billings under my name, the lady ask for my husband's driver's license and it was processed. It took us 15minutes and they will give your state ID before you leave. We paid $20 for it too. Btw, I'm from IL.

Thank you all for the answers. We will try to apply for her state ID next weeks. Again thank you and god bless you all.

I received my NM driver's license having in hand my foreign license, my passport with visa, my SS and 2 proof of residence (car insurance in my name and my name on utility bill). It was pretty long at the counter because they do these often here, but I got no problem with it. Have a look at your MVD website it will list their requirements.

Good luck!

My fiance and I are not married yet but we went to dmv and he(being the USC) signed and affadavit, showed proof of both of our statuses and now the state ID is on the way in the mail. Like others have said, it depends on the state. It's only valid until the i-94 expires however.
