If you obtained a social security card / number by showing an EAD as proof of being able to work in the United States (as opposed to a green card) then your social security card will bear the endorsement "Valid for work only with DHS authorisation".

It's not required to update it to unrestricted however it's a good idea.

It's a good idea if you later on were to stand in between jobs and in the middle of ROC and you only had ssn and couldn't show your green card. Odds aren't really that high for it happening however it's still neat to have the ssn reflect your status.

You can bring your greencard to SSA and have them update it, yes.

K1 process, October 2010 > POE, July 2011

I-129F approved in 180 days from NOA1 date. (195 days from filing to NOA2 in hand)

Interview took 224 days from I-129F NOA1 date. (241 days from filing petition until visa in hand)

From filing I-129F petition until POE: 285 days

Click timeline or "about me" for all details.

AOS process, December 2011 > July 2012

EAD/AP Approval took 51 days from NOA1 date to email update. (77 days from filing until EAD/AP in hand)

AOS Approval took 206 days from NOA1 date to email update. (231 days from filing until greencard in hand)

From filing I-129F petition until greencard in hand: 655 days

Even during ROC you will still have the (restricted) green card and the extension letter from USCIS.

I personally don't see the point in removing the annotation from your social security card, but some people like to do it.
