Hello everyone, not sure if this fits well here or not, but wanted to offer up a cautionary tale in regards to the Social Security Administration and our struggles amid our AoS application.

 

I finally moved in with my Fiancé in the US on Nov 21 2025 on a K-1 Visa, we waited 2 weeks after my entry and headed to the local SSO here in Memphis, and were promptly turned around with the information that we needed to book an in person appointment in order to be let into the building and see anyone, so we went home and scheduled that visit at the earliest available time, today Feb 4th. We got married on December 27th and thus decided to bring our marriage certificate, my i-94 and my passport along with us. I got promptly denied an SSN at the SSO since my I-94 was only valid for another 14 days. So now we are looking into alternatives on how best to procure an SSN. So my caution for those doing the K-1, note when your I-94 expires, and if your local Social Security Office can't see you for 2 months, look into other SSO's that might be able to. Hind sight is 20/20 and all that! and good luck out there.

You need EAD
