DS-230 SSNo

[e-migra 4]

Hi!

I've got a problem: I already applied for a Social Security number (my husband and I made our taxes together last year, so I had to apply for one). The problem is: I don't have my number yet. So, "have you ever applied for a SSN" - answer is YES, but what about the "Give the number"? When I complete the form in the computer, when you say yes you can't write N/A, only numbers... what can I do?

What about saying no, and then write with a black pen N/A on the folowing question, and send along a letter to explain the situation?

Thanks, and GOOD LUCK!!!!!!

Are you sure it wasn't an International Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) that you applied for? I'm 90% sure that SSNs are not issued to people who do not live and/or work in the US (unless you were at the time). This is what I applied for the year I was living there while my AOS was pending. Either way, if you applied for an SSN last year as indicated and it hasn't been issued yet, you can safely assume it was denied, in which case I would answer "YES" then write "DENIED" in the section where it asks for the number. If the application was submitted within the last few weeks and it simply hasn't been issued yet, I would answer "YES" and then write "PENDING". If it was actually an ITIN you applied for then simply select "NO". Just answer honestly. If you know it was indeed an SSN you applied for, you may want to call the SS office to ask the status of your application before answering this question.
