WAITING FOR SSN CARD AFTER GREEN CARD RECEIVED
Hey guys!
my i485 was approved on 07/14 and I received my card a week later 07/21. Now I’m waiting for the SSN CARD to arrive.
I checked on ssn website and there says to not go to the office, the uscis send the information and they will send the card by mail.
Does anyone has any experience similar to share abou how long to the ssn arrive? I’m in Orlando Fl
Btw I’m with a relly good job offer and I just need that card.
* I didn’t have EAD, my green card was approved first.

I went to my local SS office and they help me with the process. I got it in the mail less than two weeks. They told me my information was not even in there system when I got there.

go to your local SSA office, I waited for over a month and nothing came so I went to look about it myself.

show up to your local social security office; with all the USCIS backlog, sometimes they fail to forward your information to the SSA. Worst thing that can happen is they say no.

I waited for 3 months after receiving my EAD because I had no information. All I had to do was go to SSN office and they sent it to my house in a week.

Did you go?

yes and it was horrible. I spent 4h in the line, and less than 1 minute with the attendant. He just made a copy of my GC, my passaport, stapled with the form that I filled up in the line and told me to wait till 2 week. Was definitely less than 1 minute

He even didn’t look to the computer, or put any of my information there. Just the papers and told me to wait 🙄

My experience is I got approved for EAD on July 20 - SSN did not arrive after a week, so I went to SSA myself. SS officer there said they did not receive my application through USCIS eventhough I ticked the box. So that was July 28, now I called to follow up and they said I have a SSN already, but I need to wait for the card in the mail. Still waiting till now.

@D, that’s not good.. They should have given you at least a receipt..
D .Aug 1, 2022
he definitely just made a copy of my documents, stapled with my form looked at me and said “u going to receive in it the mail in the next 2 weeks”. WAS EXACTLY LIKE THAT! Less than 1 minute 😂
D .Aug 1, 2022
which number did u call?
Ja RAug 1, 2022
The local office here - I asked for their number when I visited. You should maybe visit again, and just be extra extra nice hehe
D .Aug 1, 2022
the problem is the line here, is insane!!!
D .Aug 1, 2022
Im gonna wait till next week, if I don’t receive anything I’ll go again 😖
Ja RAug 1, 2022
Try going on a Wednesday or Thursday - and get there very early. Usually the lines will be fewer then.
Ja RAug 1, 2022
Also, maybe why they didn’t type up your info is because they saw that you have a SSN in the system already? if that’s the case, you’ll receive it this week
