How can i get a driving license in the USA?

Question

if possible can i get my license converted into a US drivers license like in the Philippines that they are converting foreign license. because my parents are planning on staying in the US for good.. thanks

Answer 1

You have to have a social security card from the federal government, your birth certificate, and a green card in order to get a US license, if you are going to be staying in the US.  If you are just going to visit, then apply for an international license that is only good when you are visiting.

Answer 2

Most likely you'll have to take the driver's test all over again, since each state/country has their own laws and such.

Answer 3

No, you can't get your country's license converted to A US driver's license, then that would be so d**n easy for crooks and would sound like an unsecured thing. What you can do is apply for SSN, and have all documents such as IDs, birth certificate, or residential status in America ready. If you're simply visiting then that would depend on your states motor vehicle law.

If you are planning to stay in US for good, you'll need to take a written exam, about 20 items, multiple choice. You'll need to review the manual or go online and practice, you'll get the answers there, too. After getting your learner's permit, schedule for a road test. If you pass, then great. Drive safely.

Goodluck :P

Answer 4

As far as I know you'd have to go by whatever state it is you are planning to live in.  They may make you take the written and practical exams or maybe just the written.  That's how it is when you move from state to state anyway.  Each state has different laws.
