PhilippinesAnyone with a California State ID? K-1 Visa Holder w/o EAD or GC

My wife and I tried to apply for a California state ID in the Los Angeles DMV office. I was told that she isnt allowed to get a State ID until we have an extention of her I-94 or she gets the EAD. Is this true?


My understanding is that a K-1 visa is voided as soon as you enter POE. Basically your K1 visa had been replaced by your I-94. So yes, this is true. I dont agree with the EAD however, I think you can either adjust your status (AOS) or have your I-94 extended. EAD is for employment authorization and have nothing to do with state IDs.

EAD could be used maybe as a substitute for GC. If u have EAD, it proves that ur working or staying here in CA or any state... much better if she waits for her GC so she can use it instead of EAD smile.gif

hi there smile.gif

ur wife should have a proof that she can use the ID here, that means, she's staying in CA.

Her I-94 should at least 60 days valid in order to get an ID. Another requirement is her SSN.

By the time she'll get her GC, she can apply right away for a state ID. GC and her SSN are the requirements along with the $23 fee (before twas $22) smile.gif

Just let her wait for the GC, EAD isn't useful anymore once she has the GC. especially now that she'll receive her GC days after her EAD, or sometimes, simultaneously.

goodluck

PhilippinesIs it ok to have a pre-medical?
U may have an early medical exam at st lukes when u get ur case number or approval. If ur doubting about ur health, u may have pre-med as what lei said. diseases like Hepa and tb takes time to cure...

also, better have the vaccination at st luke, anyway it's included in ur fees.

goodluck!

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionAffidavit for I-751

Understandable. They're not a "requirement" though and if you want to get it notarised it's not going to hurt anything. So if it makes you feel better have at it :P


you're right :) we weren't even planning to send affidavits but it was on the instruction. sometimes their instructions are confusing too...

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionAffidavit for I-751
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affidavit

An affidavit ( /?æf??de?v?t/ A-f?-DAY-v?t) is a written sworn statement of fact voluntarily made by an affiant or deponent under an oath or affirmation administered by a person authorized to do so by law. Such statement is witnessed as to the authenticity of the affiant's signature by a taker of oaths, such as a notary public or commissioner of oaths. The name is Medieval Latin for he has declared upon oath. An affidavit is a type of verified statement or showing, or in other words, it contains a verification, meaning it is under oath or penalty of perjury, and this serves as evidence to its veracity and is required for court proceedings.

http://en.wikipedia....orn_declaration

A sworn declaration (also called a sworn statement or a statement under penalty of perjury) is a document that recites facts pertinent to a legal proceeding. It is very similar to an affidavit, but unlike an affidavit, it is not witnessed and sealed by an official such as a notary public. Instead, the person making the declaration signs a separate endorsement paragraph at the end of the document, stating that the declaration is made under penalty of perjury.

we just based it from this...it would still be up to you whether you want it notarized or not. I think you can use either of these two but they have different wordings.

if i'm including two affidavits from close friends in my removal of temporary resident package, should the affidavits be notarized? Or can I just include the signed letters in my package? Please advice.



we did have them notarized. according to the instructions, they should be sworn affidavits :)

AAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

Sorry must vent.... I've send a package to USCIS a few days ago (10th of jan) and finally on the 17th they signed for it and REJECTED it... The notice says they've not received payment!!!!
However 2 checks (one for 505 and one for 85) were included.
After a phone call with the national service center.... it turns out that your alien number needs to be on the back of the check, otherwise they deem the check "invalid" and therefore they tick the "no payment received" option on the reject letter.

Ah well, lesson learned, will resend my package tomorrow with the check containing the alien number. Fingers crossed they'll accept in a few days.



does it have to be 2 checks? first time i've heard of this alien number at the back of the check...

Andrelle, I am a May CSC filer whose closest ASC is Oakland. I am now suffering the same thing you went through. No bio appt letter at all while other filers seem to have got theirs. Looks like Oakland is in high demand ;)


I got my letter a month after we've submitted the packet. Your schedule for biometrics might be in July and you'll get it in June. We went to our biometrics appointment and we didn't have a hard time. They were very efficient. We got there super early. I was scheduled for 11 am and we got there at 7:30. We thought it's better we get there early but of course they were still closed at that time coz they open at 8 am. I think it only took us less than 20 minutes for the whole process. i didn't ask them if they accept walk-ins but you could try. Good luck to all of us :)
