Moved to the International forum
Please take the time to read this forum, there are many states that will not issue a license without a SSN or proof that you are legally in the country with a work or immigrant visa. The issue with CA is they will destroy your file after 3 years if you haven't provided them with a SSN or asked for a extension giving reasons why. You may need to research some of the states and see what they do regarding issuing license without SSN
