Hi, my h1 just got approved. My employer has received a courtesy copy of the I-797. They have given me a photocopy of that. Can I use that photocopy at the California DMV office as proof of legal presence to get my drivers license?

Hi OP,
USCIS sends two copies of I-797 (one courtsey copy without I-94) and it is I-797C at the top and other one with I-94 at bottom and is I-797A.
Note : Above scenario is generlly when H1 is filed through an attorney.
So ask your employer -for I-797A - the one with I-94 at bottom and if possible ask for an original ( as you know DMV people - they can raise any issue any time like " we want to see original" etc etc...).
If not -then try with the photocopy....
Also you need to take an Employment Letter from your company (on company letterhead) which DMV office will keep.
Thanks and regards,
Abhay
