My fiance used to live & work in the US before he had to go home to Ireland for a couple years. Since he was working, he had a SSN. We were just approved for our K1. Does he need to file for a new SSN or can he use the one he had a few years ago?

Thanks!!

FAQ:

SSA assigns only one SSN to a person for LIFE. So this is one thing you do not have to worry about, continue using the SSN he already has.

Later when you get green-card, visit SSA and report this immigrations status change.

OUR TIME LINE Please do a timeline it helps us all, thanks.

Is now a US Citizen immigration completed Jan 12, 2012.

The Social Security Administration (SSA) does not delete, destroy, rescind, inactivate or cancel Social Security numbers once they are assigned. If your fiancé has been assigned an SSN it will remain his number throughout his lifetime and SSN cards do not expire.

Unless there has been a name change since his SSN was assigned, his card has ““NOT VALID FOR EMPLOYMENT” printed on it or he wants to replace the card due to it being damaged, there is no need for him to contact SSA until his permanent residency is approved and he is issued an I-551 stamp or card.
