Kansas Drivers License Renewal

Scan a copy of the form and scan copies of your I-20, I-94, visa, and passport biographical

information page. Students with OPT authorization should also send a copy of their OPT card

(employment authorization document). Email the scanned form and documents to LAWFULPRESENCE@KDOR.STATE.KS.US . You can also hand-carry your documents to the local DMV office to be snail-mailed to KDOR for you, or you can snail-mail them directly to the Driver’s License Bureau address on the reverse side of this form, but emailing them directly is most efficient. Students with OPT authorization should indicate this in the email and ask that the A number on the OPT card (employment authorization document) be used as an alternative to the SEVIS number on the I-20 for SAVE verificationWait. Once you submit your documents, a coordinator will check the SAVE system database to verify status. Applicants with valid I-94’s should take only a few seconds to be verified. In this case, often the same day or always by the second day the coordinator will reply to you by email and attach a Word document that tells you your SAVE number and a “status expiration date.” If a second verification step is needed, then expect an additional three to five days. If a third verification is required, the process could take three to five weeks. If you have a valid I-94, you should not need the second or third step. Note: times for these steps may decrease later as KDOR gets access to other enforcement websites
