Hey New Jersey!

I did my Biometrics on 9/17/12 at Hackensack, case approved 9/28/12 and EAD card arrived 10/4/12. I applied for my S# on 10/10/12 at the SSA office in Manhattan (didn't know there was one in NJ) and received my S# card on 10/15/12. The Manhattan office had great service and everything went by quickly and smoothly. Went to the DMV for the first time last Saturday in Lodi and got my state ID and driver's permit! Granted, I was in there for 3 hours because of the ridiculous line (went 8am when it opened and left 11am), but it was definitely worth it

These past few weeks have been both amazing and a blessing. It's been a bit hectic taking Megabus back and forth from school to home (I go to school in upstate NY), but I immediately went for the next available step so that my application could be processed and finished as soon as possible. I'll always remember my roots and stay humble, and I'm excited for everyone else to receive their # too

For the 6-points at the DMV, I used:
- (3 pts) Current photo employment authorization card (Form I-688B
or I-766). Must be presented with valid Social Security card.
- (2 pts) US college photo ID card with transcript
- (1 pt) Social security card

Proof of address:
- High school or college report card or transcript containing
your address, issued within the past two years

So basically, my EAD card, SSN card, college id and college transcript satisfied all requirements. 6-pt system link: http://www.state.nj.us/mvc/pdf/Licen...posterpint.pdf

My application was self-filed, and DAP has been an invaluable resource to my DACA journey. I'm so grateful for this forum and am more than willing to give back with advice; let me know if anyone has questions. Good luck guys!
