? I'd think the I-94 and I-20 would prove your F-1 status. If I-20 will not prove the F-1 status then which one will proved it that,you are a legal immigrant here in USA. Lol "?" I -20 is the only legal paper which will shows your status here in USA as an F-1 student. With the help of valid I-20 you can travel Canada And Mexico. You don't need a valid visa to travel there. So my concern is if u don't know anything then, please don't share all these stupid things over here in Shaja. @ uyarihc which DMV office you tried ? If you try one in Irving then try another one in Arlington, Richland Hills or in lewisville. I love to go to the one at Arlington. Very cool people over there. Good luck :)
