REAL ID ACT 2005 , driver's license renewal in Mississippi

[gr8myth]

I found from the National Conference of State Legislatures that Mississippi is REAL ID compliant state since December 2013. And as per the statute of this 2005 law, (Section 202. C.2. B. IX) persons with pending adjustment of status cases can be issued the DL.

Should I not be able to renew my driver's license on the baiss of this statute? has anyone in any other compliant state used this provision?
My H1B renewal, EB1B and AOS are pending.
my local station of dmv denied to renew my license beyond my current I94 Validity, which is till January 10,2014.
Thanks

Hello you should be able too and certainly take that law in print and verify it with with the court house in your area or a free legal service. Take your solid answer with you to the dmv or called the main supervisor who over sees that DMV and request an answer

In most states you would be caught in limbo as too not being able to get an drivers license BUT !!!! If you were issued a EAD than you are entitled to a drivers license

Thank you for the suggestion. I am not aware of ways to get free legal advise. Do you know of specific forums or should I just web search "free legal advice"? I asked my university administrators and they were not aware of it. As for the EAD, the Univ goofed up by sending OPT code instead of AOS code. Got to know lat week at INFOPASS meeting. Waiting to get RFE letter.
