Make sure that you only have one A# - check your NOA2 and anywhere else it might appear. There is a place on the form where you list any 'other' names used. No problem Link to comment

No, of course not. The passport is good enough for the time being. The EAD or a state ID card, maybe DL) will be the first picture ID issued in the US. Link to comment

jaybird Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 Check the expiration date on your K1 visa first. I am a K1 visa holder as well, and I just went to the California DMV to apply for a state ID. But they said after the expiration date on my K1 visa, they wouldn't be able to issue me a state ID, until I get my green card. Link to comment

Some states require only the EAD - Jiaying got her DL on the same day she got her EAD. Check with your own state. Link to comment
