Athens, GA asked in Immigration Law for Georgia

Q: Expired green card. What other form of ID can I use to get a GA drivers license?

I am a permanent resident of the US. CA accepted expired and or copy of the green card. GA does not. Aside from renewing card for $500 and waiting 6 months, is there anything else I can use to obtain a GA drivers license?

A: If you apply to renew your green card, you can either receive an extension sticker on the card when you do your biometrics, or you can ask for temporary card during an infopass appointment at your local USCIS office.

A: You can check with the DMV but I do not think you will receive a DL without showing that you are currently in a lawful status in the United States.
