drivers license
hello everyone!
I had asked my lawyer if there was any way of getting a State ID card or even a drivers license & she said yes!
I personally have never had a drivers license, not even in my home country. The requirements in order to get a permit drivers license in the state of Florida is first passing a drug & alcohol exam: “4 hour Traffice Law and Substance Abuse Exam (TLSAE)”. It is of course with a cost, I paid around $70, including exam & delivery of the certificate once I passed.
After that exam I studied for the Written Drivers Permit Exam for my state, once I felt ready to take the test I went to my local DMV to take the exam. It was an hour long multiple choice answer exam needing a minimum of 40 correct answers & no more than 10 wrong answers if not … failed.
Now the documentation I presented to the DMV in order to take the exam were the following:
Valid passport
i-94 travel history (you can find it online)
Marriage Certificate
SSN (if you have one)
I-485 receipt notice after biometrics !! with stamp !!
I-130 receipt notice
2 forms of domicile proving your home address
After I passed the written drivers permit exam they took my picture, did a brief eye exam, signed & paid ($60) !!!
This is my personal experience, not all State are the same! Ask your lawyer if you have any more questions, im not a legal adviser haha. just wanted to share my story!!
Good luck to those who decide to look into getting a License!!!

do you have to be living in a particular county to apply for drivers license in that county? or is based if you are a residence of that state for more than 30 days and it doesn’t matter which county in the state?

@larr ik look up on Google a DMV office near you & on their website search for non immigrant, there you should see if they allow you to get a drivers license & the requirements.
