    I'm single so I can do any type of driving and don't care how often I get home. Would you know if I went to
    cdl school here with a NY license, would that create a problem at dmv and such?

    I'm half German, but born in Tennessee.
    Any luck having your green card replaced? That can be a hassle. Get that done and you'll be on your way to a good career. Lots of good jobs here for local or OTR.

    Probably would be a problem. Have you been to the INS office here to ask about a replacement green card.
    We had a problem getting my wife's drivers license here because there was an error on her green card, but the INS office took care of it. Took about a month.
    You might graduate from cdl school here, but then have to take the paperwork back to New York to have a cdl issued. That can be a problem also, for trucking companies because they may want your domicile address to match your CDL address.

    I can apply online for a replacement green card, $455, ouch. It can take a few months to get it. I have to call the office anyway I have a few questions before I file. I had one of the cards that didn't expire from the 1970's. The new green cards are good for 10 years now, no more expireless. lol
     
    Chinatown Thanks this.

    Yes, so my plan is to get the new green card, then NV license change and I should be good.
