Hi friends, My husband is a former K1 visa holder, and we actually just received his Green Card today!! (No interview was necessary! Such a great surprise. We live in NY for what it's worth. I know some states care more about interviews than others). Anyway! My biggest question is with regards to his social security number... We applied for one on the basis of his K1 visa status last year... and we never got it. We asked for it again when we submitted his Employment authorization document, which we sent in connection with his I-485 and the Advance Parole application... and we still haven't heard anything about the EAD or AP.. While we're very grateful to have the green card, I have to ask, what on earth is going on? Why didn't we hear anything about the EAD before the Green Card was processed? And do we go back to SSA with a new application? Anyone have a similar experience? Were you able to resolve it in any way? Thank you all!!
