我的临时驾照过期了快一周了，忘记去renew，新的驾照也没寄过来（也不知道是不是给我办的real ID？, 准备明天去DMV。仔细观察了一下，当时办事人员在我的临时驾照上写了一个Legal Presence号码（916-657-7790），应该是快过期的时候打过去查询进度和催促用的，但是我忘了。。。我印象里以为10月 份才过期😌。
所以说，明天去了之后有几件事需要确认：
- 继续renew
- 查询驾照审批进度
- 再次确认地址
保险起见还是带上[必要的材料]:
- 护照
- I-94
- Old DL
- SSN Card
- EAD
- H1B
后续： 上次去renew的时候用的是OPT学生身份，但在审批过程中我的身份变成了H1B，不一致导致了pending，这 次去更新了一下，所以一定要用最新的身份去办理。
09/30/2019, 今天收到了新的driver license，居然不是Real ID, 之后还得再去更换，否则2020以后 乘机还得带护照了。决定2020之后再去办理了，因为会搬家。记得要2份不同的住址证明，否则不给办.
10/18/2019, 过了一个月sticker还是没有收到，去DMV一问才知道地址居然还是以前的，原来car registration的地址和Drive license的地址都要修改。花了22刀现场办了一个，算是了结一件事.
2022-12 DL Renewal
I have received the notice from DMV to renew my DL(expiration date 2023/01). Book a appointment if in person renew is needed.
I have also completed the H1B extension application, the file has been received.
I did not see any documents that are required for renewal, in case, just bring them together:
- Renewal Notice from DMV
- Application fee
- Passport
- H1B Extenstion Notice (I-94 included)
- Old DL
- SSN Card
- New Address Memo
I was not required to redo the test, just needs to finish the application, inputed your personal attributes such has eye color, hight, weight, etc (from the old DL).
For my case, only passport, H1B(I-94) were collected, whole process took about 1 hour, pretty efficient.
