What do I need to get to obtain a state ID and how could I go about getting these things?

Since you have a photocopy of your green card, you can apply for a replacement on form I-90 “Application to Replace Permanent Resident Card.” The application fee is $450 and should be mailed to the U.S.C.I.S. Phoenix lockbox facility. If using U.S. Postal Service, send to: U.S.C.I.S. PO Box 21262 Phoenix, AZ 85036 If using U.S. Postal Service express mail or courier, send to: U.S.C.I.S. Attention: I 901 1820 E. Sky Harbor, Circle S, Floor 1 Suite 100 Phoenix, AZ 85034 Insofar as a state ID is concerned, you should be able to obtain such as soon as you obtain a replacement green card. Insofar as Social Security is concerned, you can attempt to obtain a new one now and if rejected, wait until you have your new green card before trying again at your local Social Security office.Due to the limitations of the Lawyers.com Forums, Alan Lee, Esq.'s (the "Firm") participation in responding to questions posted herein does not constitute legal advice, nor legal representation of the person or entity posting a question.
