Other states may have a different set of criteria for international students in F-1 student status wishing to obtain a driver’s license or state identification (ID) card. New students should check-in with ISS before going to the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to obtain a driver’s license or state ID card. Many people visit the DMV each day, so waiting times can be long. Because of this, you should plan accordingly. If you will visit the DMV with friends who also need to apply for a driver’s license or state ID card, be sure to visit the DMV early to allow plenty of time during the DMV’s business hours.  \nDEPARTMENT OF MOTOR VEHICLES (DMV)  \n[www.transportation.wv.gov/dmv](www.transportation.wv.gov/dmv)  \n801 Madison Avenue 5707 MacCorkle Avenue SE  \nHuntington, WV 25755 Charleston, WV 25317  \n8:30am – 5:30pm, M-F 8am – 6pm, M-F  \nRequired documents:  \n􀀹 Valid foreign passport with English translation  \n􀀹 Current form I-94 (available online at: [https://i94.cbp.dhs.gov/i94](https://i94.cbp.dhs.gov/i94) )  \n􀀹 Visa issued by the United States  \n􀀹 Current I-20 or DS-2019  \n􀀹 UNEXPIRED Status Verification Letter from the Office of International Student Services verifying your status and attendance at Marshall University (*Status Verification Letters for the DMV expire after 20 days from the issue date on the letter): [http://www. marshall.edu/iss/verification](http://www. marshall.edu/iss/verification)  \n􀀹 Social Security Card (*If do not have a job on-campus or are otherwise ineligible for a social security number, you must show proof that you have applied for a social security card and have been denied)  \n􀀹 Two (2) proofs of West Virginia residency (a list of acceptable documents can be found on the DMV website at [http://www.transportation.wv.gov/DMV/Drivers/Pages/Drivers-Licenses.aspx](http://www.transportation.wv.gov/DMV/Drivers/Pages/Drivers-Licenses.aspx))  \n􀀹 IF APPLYING FOR OPT: I-797 Receipt Notice from USCIS showing the case is received and in pending status  \nFrequently Asked Questions  \nWhat is a state identification (ID) card?  \nA state ID card is used only for identification purposes.
