Unless you can provide documents verifying legal presence in the US, you usually cannot obtain a drivers license. The Web site for the NY DMV will tell you what documents are acceptable as proof. A social security card and a passport do not verify legal presence, unless that passport has a valid visa in it. In your case, you stated your visa expired 5+ years ago, so what is the status of your legal presence in the US?
 
NYS DMV doesn't require proof of legal status. You need 6points to proof yur identity and date of birth. You don't need to proof your legal status.

You can get:
2 pts for SSN
1 pt for debit card or credit card (You can get one from your parents or buy a personalized gift card with your name)
2 pts for HS Student ID with report card
1 pt for bank statement (find a bank account for minors)

and as proof of your DOB they accept passport, no visa need!

This is from NY DMV book.

In reading the list, it does not appear that a foreign passport alone qualifies as proof of birth date. All of the foreign passport options listed require I-94s, visas, visa codes or an I-551. I didn't see anything in the list that says that a foreign passport without these qualifications would qualify as proof of birth date, unless I missed something.
