Social security number and correction of green card info

[Uiyl 56]

How long does it take to receive social security number after entering the US? Also, what form do we use to submit corrections on the Visa annotations before receiving the actual green card? Thanks in advance for your insights.

1.  A few weeks to several months....if you marked the box correctly on the DS-260.

2.  What "corrections" ?

-SSN can take few weeks.

-Visa annotations? not sure what do you want to do with this. The only thing we need to make sure is 2 year GC(married less than 2 years) or 10 year GC(married more than 2 years).

Thanks for prompt reply. I just entered the U.S with CR1 visa stamp despite being married for more than two. I had informed the same to the CPB officer at the Port of entry. He asked why I didn't correct it at the Consulate stage and there is nothing they can do about it and advised me to apply for removal of conditions. I recalled your advise here on VJ if it's not corrected at the port of entry, I can still apply for its correction using some form. I m seeking advise in that regard. Thanks once again.

Thanks, was issued a CR1 instead of an IR1 and trying to see how to get it corrected without having to apply for removal of conditions.

Whether you receive a 2 year card or a 10 year card is not determined by the officer at CBP, or what is annotated on your visa.  It will be determined at USCIS before your card is produced.  You are correct that you can submit an I-90 if they send you the wrong card.  They make that mistake , but not often.  Hopefully, they will send you the correct card.
