I dont know about that..... but I thought that when you letter expires
you can go to your local office and ask for I-551 stamp (which is valid
for 1 year)

Yes but the DMV, here in Virginia, will take it as proof of legal presence. And since they passed the law effective January 1st, that you now have to prove that as well as being a resident, as well proof of identifity and proof of social security number.

But they won't take it expired, which led me to ask the question, can I get it extended, or can I request one for the AOS/EAD?
