Insha'Allah everyone is healthy and being patient in their long wait!! Insha'Allah you will be re united with your loved one!!

My husband arrived June 11 on a CR-1 visa alhamdulillah!! I am needing to know something reguarding his social security card. Does anyone know if his social security card will come automatically or do we need to go apply for one?

Thanks to all

Did he apply for it yet? (review his DS-230)

Did you read any other posts on the topic (there is a huge thread on it going right now).

Did you use the search function?

Did you read the Guide?

Have you looked outside of this regional forum for this general information that applies to all?

PS: no, no one knows or can know if your husband's card will come automatically.

Wa alaikum assalam Nadia

Congratulations on your recent reunion with your husband !

If your husband checked the box on his DS-230 (as Meauxna mentioned,) then wait 3 or 4 weeks for it to arrive in the mail. If still nothing, then you can go down to your nearest Social Security office and apply for it there... his paperwork from POE should be "in the system" by then.

Thank you for your information...I couldnt remember if he marked on the DS-230 but we checked and he did alhamdulillah.

Insha'Allah his social security card gets here soon.
