Hello, If I remember correctly, it wouldn't show the option of replacement card if non-citizen. Citizen account also has social security benefit section.

I logged in again today and found the 'non-citizen' part has disappeared. The page also shows retirement and benefit etc. I guess it has been updated to citizen account.

yeah, I think you are right. For people who applied immigration process, it is recommended to change name after finished the process. Additionally, like you said, it is free to do so at the oath.

Updated today's SSA visit: Just walked in my local SSA office without appointment. Handed them my NC, driver's license, Name change court order, and application. All originals. The officer asked if I changed my name because I got married. I said I just recently got my citizenship. On the oath ceremony, I change my last name to my husband's last name. It seems like she didn't understand the connection between getting a citizenship and name change. She asked for a marriage certificate. I said I married four years ago. I don't have it with me today. She started to work on the screen and checked my documents. I guess a court order suffices. I though they were going to take away my NC until further notice. In the end, they returned all my documents and gave me a receipt. New card will be arrived in two weeks. I checked my online account later the day. My name has been updated, but still showed non-citizen. I'll check again in two weeks.

4/28 NC received.
