"You will be required to pay a fee for your license and also show proof of identity with a photograph (which includes your date of birth) as well as proof of residence in the state of which you are applying. Passports, I-94 cards, or a green card stamp are all acceptable forms of identification." No they are not. I've been trying to get a license now for months and they have specific needs, bank statements (which you need an ID with your address on it to open), utilities bills which when you're living with someone else aren't happening. Official Homeland security paper work addressed to you at your home residence are not sufficient. Go figure. You can however go to the post office ask for a change of address form, fill in a fake previous address and your legitimate current address and use forwarded mail as proof. note this requires no proof of anything to be shown to the post office. You could even use a fake name. but, it is I gather fraud so i'm not interested. Good luck and may God help you because no one else will.
