Hi, I applied to remove the conditions on my residence and received a letter that I'll need to show up to a biometrics appointment first. I was sick at the time, so I called and they said they'll call me back to reschedule me, the call back may take a month. 

Unfortunately, I missed the call. 

Now they're saying they'll contact me again, and they can't provide a time reference for the next call back. 

Anyone else experience this?

Were you a resident in 2019? You said you were living abroad for the whole year of 2019. When did you move? 

 

If you only moved in 2020, I don't think you qualify for Stimulus right now through the non filers.

I wasn't, I got my CR-1 and entered Feb of this year, right before the covid craze. For the non filers application I used my old SSN with my maiden last name (from when I was on a J1 visa), the offices refuse to let me update my last name at the time until they reopen. I don't know if this is the reason they reject my application, or if it's rejected at all, it's confusing. 

Thanks for your help. 

Hi everyone,

I applied for the stimulus check as a non-filer, my USC husband got his stimulus check before even filing for 2019 (he had nothing to file anyway and was denied ny IRS when he tried, since he lived abroad the whole year with me and didn't make any income in the US in 2019). 

As for myself, I went the non-filers route and am confused at the opposing messages I got. Can anyone help me?

The email states: Non-Filers: Enter Payment Info - Return Accepted

When I logging into the irs non-filers website, it gives me this: 

The IRS has rejected your federal return.

Here's the reason for the rejection:

Hi everyone,

Is enrolling with Medi-Cal (California's Medicaid) health insurance considered a public charge? I'll need to do a ROC in about 2 years, will it interfere with that? Should I go with Covered California instead? 

TIA

Does that mean that Medi-Cal (California's medicaid) is out of question? I'm in a similar boat as the op, entered 2 months ago will be removing the conditions of my CR-1 in about 2 years from now, so I'm trying to learn if I'm eligible for Medi-Cal or just Covered California? Currently husband is working minimum wage, his dad is a cosponsor, I'm not working yet. TIA

I meant: I recommend NOT calling the main Social Security national number

Where did you find the local offices phone numbers as opposed to the national number?

I'm asking since I've tried looking up 3 different offices near me and they all have the same number, which is the national one. TIA

I have gotten my passport and certificate back. They acknowledged my application, but the SSN hasn't arrived yet, because the documents are still going through a verification process (might take up to 4 weeks).

 

Yes, I talked to a person in our local office after 5 min. But that was 3 weeks ago - i'd imagine it's worse now.

Thank you for the quick and helpful reply! 

One more question, did you apply for a new or corrected card? 

I have a SSN from years ago when I was a seasonal worker in the US as a student on a J1 visa. 

I recently got approved for a CR-1 spousal visa and moved to the US, so my last name and immigration status have changed, and I think I qualify for a corrected instead of a new SSN?

Thank you for reading all my questions, I'm a little weary of sending my passport by mail, so I wanna gather other people's experiences before I do that.

That makes sense. I kept my name so that problem never occurred, even though we had gotten married already.

 

Not too long - I'd say less than 5 min, but that probably depends on when you call and which office you are calling.

Did you end up getting your SSN, your passport and marriage certificate back?

How long did it take them? 

Also, you managed to talk to a person on the phone after 5 minutes, or are you taking about the pre recorded stuff? 

In person offices are closed. I entered the US on a CR1 visa 5 weeks ago. The card was supposed to arrive in the mail but it never did.

Anyone else in a similar situation, how do you go about obtaining you SSN number?

Thanks.
