Where's the SSN?

[McEsty 0]

The Green cards arrived but no SS number. I checked that USCIS assign a number.

Did you have to go to SS in person to get your number?

Should I wait til it comes? (NOPE)

Any number that I can call before I go directly to the social?

Thanks for your inputs folks!

Go ahead and apply. I thought it would come with my green card but it did not, i waited for 3 months that's when my husband and i decided to go ahead and apply personally i got it the same day. Due to my experience i would advice to go apply today.

Just go to the offices very early in the morning Pick a number and wait your turn. Say what you need then that's it. There is an online application too but since its new and you would not want screw it up just walk in. go with all your documents.

Please keep in mind, the green card comes from USCIS, the SSN comes from the SSA. So, of course they won't come together. They're mailed by two very different agencies.

If it's been more than 3 weeks since your POE, then go to a local SSA office and apply in person. This is what I had to do. My SSN then arrived in the mail less than 2 weeks later. Go on the SSA site to know what to bring with you.
