I was able to add my spouse without a ssn but she was living here during her adjustment phase. I inquired prior to her coming and was told no until she lived here.
Are you referring to ‘myprogress’ ? If so it fluctuates up and down and zeros out then changes again. It’s extremely inaccurate for most. I personally don’t bother to check it as it holds no value in reality.
You are certainly welcome to attempt to expedite but being sad and lonely ( which most in this process are) is not a valid reason. Your upcoming medical may be but don’t be surprised if it doesn’t work.
