L2 visa - DMV Insufficient docs

[saha1234]

Hi,
My wife was told by DMV(Richmond,VA) to provide 2 identification documents to obtain a driving license. But she has Passport with I-94, SSN only. So they didnot accept the applicaton. What else can she provide as an additional identification? Please suggest us.
She is in L2 visa.

Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Deva.

You have two options.
1. Apply for EAD and then show that as second ID.
2. Send a letter to VA DMV head office requesting elevated review along with copies of passport, I-94 and SSN card. After 7 days of sending the letter, call them and ask them about the status of your request.

Passport and SSN are usually OK for most states. You can try with Health Insurance Card and Indian Marriage certificate also.

VA (and most states) do not accept either.

Hi,
Thank you all for your replies. I had been to 3 different DMV offices near by. None of them accepted it. They are very particular and always looking in the list of documents sheet and asking the particular.
I will write a detailed letter to DMV head office and will update you.

Once again, Thank you.

Hi,

I went thru similar situation. DMV accepts only US docs.
I applied for joint Costco card and BJs card. These should help you to meet points system.
