I found the following regarding acquiring a new social security card now that green card has been received. Is this true?  I haven’t found any evidence to support this. Thanks!

 

“If you have your 10-year green card all you need do is take it to the SSA and ask them to remove the condition and issue a new card. If you're a resident but holding a two-year green card, the condition will stay until you go through ROC successfully.”

Either way the "DHS authorization" would be your green card or EAD, so it's a bit of a non-issue if you ask me.

I was able to have the condition of DHS authorization removed upon receiving my conditional GC.  Also, I specifically asked if I had to do anything when I receive my 10 year GC, but they said no, not unless or until I get citizenship.

Would you include a copy of ss card with this on it to file for ROC?  Or perhaps not include it at all?
