Hello VJ'ers, How's everybody today? I know it's been a while since my last post I kinda busy adjusting my self in cold weather here in florida plus the holiday season. I need you help hope someone can give me ideas. I enter in U.S using K1 Visa last November 2012 and we get married december 2012 and we applied my SSN Card the day after our court wedding using my husband last name. Want to apply State ID card with married name but the requirement's of the driver license office was USCIS paper's need to be updated with married name. Should we wait tell after AOS before I applied State ID with married? I really need your help guy's and I really appreciate it's.

Hi,

I got my state ID after I got my green card. I remember, one of the requirements of state ID are: you must be a resident for a least one year and your SS ID and your green card. Wait till your green card arrives and till you have a year of residency in the states your living.

When you file for AOS, you will file for your EAD/AP as well. You will receive the EAD/AP combo card in about 2-3 months after filing. You can use that to get a temporary FL state ID and then go back to update it to the non-temporary version when you receive your green card.

You are absolutely correct. Once you have receive your EAD/AP you can apply for FL State ID and also for Driverse license if you prefer to.

We were at CA DMV yesterday and they won't let Mike apply for his DL as his I-94 is now within 60 days. Adviced us to just come back once he received his EAP and AP which should be in a couple of months

Won't let him drive with his Philippine DL also as he's not officially a resident of the state yet

Good luck!
