SSN ineligibility question.

[mmarti14]

My mom has a pending I-130 (we are residing in the US) case since 2005 and my siblings and I are her dependents. I recently read in the MVA website that you can acquire a driver's license even if you don't have a SSN by getting a SSN ineligibility letter. I looked in to SSN ineligibility letter on their website and even called them up. I was told that it's a fairly simple process and that you can show up at SSA and fill out a SSN form knowing that you can get rejected.

But I am worried that we could get penalized for getting an ineligibility letter or worse deported. Does anyone have any experience regarding this matter?

Yes, for persons who have a legal status or certain type of visas such students, visitor, business...they can get this type of letter form SS office for the purpose of driver license.First, what is your immigration status, if you don't mind giving more details? If you are illegal, you cannot have a driver license!
