Hi guys,

My wife moved to U.S about 3 weeks ago. We did check the box for having SSN card sent to us on DS 230. She has received her green card but no SSN yet. How long does it take for SSN card to come.

I know for some people they have to go to SS Admin office to apply for one even though you requested one to be mailed to you so I just want to know how long I should wait before applying for one?

Thanks!

Go now to the SSA office and file for a SSN, if they have already assigned one already it will show up in the system.

Some people will get their cards after they arrive because they checked the box in the DS-230 and others, like us, didn't and ended up going to the SSA office to file for one. Once you file it only takes a couple of weeks to arrive in the mail.
