Nope no need to renew your temp green card stamp is in your passport so no worries. there.

Some have gone to SS office I have a friend they arrive here the 21st and went to SS office on 24th and got SS card the 28th. So if you are that much in hurry to get a card (they need to get child in school) I would do it.
