My fiance has a social security number from her visit last year as a J1 work/travel visa holder. It has restrictions saying work only with DHS approval.

We are married now and filing for AOS, EAD for work, and AP.

My question is can we go to the Social Security office to get her a new card?

Any advice or experience would be appreciated.

Hi,

You will have to wait until she receives her green card.

Then she could obtain an unrestricted social security card (with the same number, of course).

You do not need to get a new SS card until DHS work authorization restrictions have been removed. You are not there yet. When she gets her "greencard" then you will apply for an unrestricted card.

YMMV

Tim,

Her existing card will serve quite nicely for the time being. Once she is EA she can go to the SSA to get a card in her married name, if she will be changing her name to yours. Once she is a LPR she can go to the SSA office to get a card without the notation.
