Almost 6 years ago we started getting Texas DL. Almost every time my spouse had to wait for the second stage of verification, that means:
We started AOS in November 2018, at that time the principal renewed the license and they approved until the I94 valid date (2021) but the dependent renewed in January 2019. I guess they updated the information and the renewal was only authorized for 1 year (second stage).
Now the dependent received the letter that the license is going to expire and because they always take time, it is better to go 3-4 weeks before expiration.
In another post I reported that we sent the renewal (EAD) for the 3 of us, our child already approved for 2 years, principal for 1 year and dependent spouse still waiting. The EAD expires in March, so we were thinking that they will say to wait for second stage and the validity of the license will be for only 2 months or maybe 8 months (if they use the 180 days from the receipt).
We visited the office, give all the documents (they had to add the SS card that was not on file and the EAD that expires in March 2020). They didn't want the I-797 receipt for the renewal so we expected a license for only a few months.
To our surprise, the paper temporary license expires in March 2020 but it says that the real license will expire in 6 years. Everywhere I read it say that if there is no date for expiring legal stay the license will be for only 1 year and the legend "Limited Term" will be printed (all our licenses have showed the legend). That you can only get a 6 years license if you are a citizen or LPR. I wonder if the license will arrive with "Limited Term" or not.
Dependent still waiting for EAD renewal, we all waiting for our PD to become Current (EB).
- bring all paperwork to the driver license office
- wait for them to scan everything and then be told to wait for a letter in the mail to come back once DHS verify the legal stay
