It takes about couple of weeks and you will get a letter that you can go and get your license. Going to DMV supercenter helps as they generally would know about the process

Yes; it will usually go through SAFE verification. Most DMV agents are not aware of this.. tell them that this should go through secondary verification and they will give you an ID / ref #. You will be able to go back to the DMV. In total be ready to make 2 trips to the DMV

PwC is correct. I had to go through this exact dilemma. SAFE verification proves that your extension is in-progress, and that you’re still a lawful resident of the US. Second trip to DMV (after SAFE verified) will provide you with a conditional “approved-until” date on your renewed license. You’ll need to make a third trip to DMV after your extension has been secured.

Thanks P1and M1. Any idea how much time it takes

Just used a meaningful amount of AMEX points for the first time to buy flights to Greece for my wife and I. Emirates business class both ways for 2 people, 290k pts total or 145k each way for 2 tickets. Plus another 30k to get us round trip domestic connecting flights bringing the total to 320 points. This is on the 777 which isn’t the best business class product out there, but I’ve never flown international outside of coach and think it will still be worthwhile. Think this is an OK redemption?
