USCIS SAVE - DMV GA

[laskan2k]

My license is expiring in a couple of days and when i went for renewal, they said my case has to be verified with USCIS SAVE and it days a few days.

1) Is there anything i can do to expedite the process?

2) In the mean time, is there anyway i can request for a provisional (temporary) license so that i can drive till they get a decision from USCIS?

3) I got H-1B stamping in May and travelled back a couple of weeks back. Is this verification required as i have entered recently?

Please clarify/help. Thanks.

You need to wait till your DMV gets an authorization from DHS SAVE. You cant drive till you have a DL.

"1) Is there anything i can do to expedite the process?"

=> The same thing happened in my case. They sent my I797 to be verified by SAVE process. It failed, they again did it manually. The whole process took 30-40 months for approval. There is nothing called temporary/ provisional driving permit. After expiry of driving permit you HAVE to stop driving.

I would suggest to other fellows to apply for DL renewal in 2-3 months advance.

"30-40 months'

=> 30-40 days
