SSN??

[Liz10976 0]

My husband's EAD card came yesterday. Today he went to apply for SSN, but they told him he has to come back May 12th since the system hasn't been updated. Wouldn't he be in the system if he received his EAD card???

That is weird. They just took all the info from Claudeth when she did her name change and waited for the USCIS to verify before re-issuing the card in her married name.

When I received my EAD card I waited for one week to apply for SSN. When I went to SSA office the officer told me that my name wasn't on the system yet, but she accepted my application and she told me to wait for three weeks for my SSN to arrived. Two weeks past after my SSN application I called the Lee Summit's office and ask how long should I wait to have my name to be in the SSA system? The lady who answered my call telling me to call my local SSA to update their system coz my name was already on it. I called the SSA a few times but couldn't speak to the person who handle my application. She didn't answered my calls so what I did was just leaving a message to her voice mail. A day or two after calling the SSA I got a letter telling me that they processed my application and then after three days I received my SSN in the mail.

I would say that your husband's name was already on the system. The SSA really needs to update their system. He (your husband) can ask them to do that. Either he can go back there again and bring his application and documents or he can call them.

In my own experienced dealing with the government was so a pain! They are very slow, slower than turtle!

That is not correct. They should have taken the application. Not that big of a deal if you want to give it more time since the EAD card is good for a year, but I wouldn't exspect anything to have changed when you go back.

RM 00203.720 Verifying Immigration Documents

C. PROCEDURE—VERIFYING AN IMMIGRATION DOCUMENT

STEP 2

Is the immigration document presented one that is acceptable to SSA ?

If yes, go to step 3.

STEP 3

Is the acceptable immigration document submitted an original or a copy certified by the issuing agency?

If yes, go to step 4.

STEP 4

Is the acceptable immigration document current (not expired)?

If yes (the document has not expired), go to step 5.

STEP 5

Will the acceptable immigration document expire within 14 calendar days, or will the applicant’s immigration status expire within 14 calendar days?

If no is the answer to both of these questions is no, go to step 6.

STEP 6

Visually examine the immigration document under both natural and black light following the guidelines in the ACM. Does the document appear genuine?

If yes, go to step 7.

STEP 7

Does the immigration document show an alien registration number (A-number) or an admission number?

If yes, go to step 8.

STEP 8

Query SAVE online and review the SAVE query response (see RM 00203.735). Does the online SAVE query response data exactly match all the information on the immigration document presented and does the SAVE query response confirm the immigration status shown on the immigration document?

If yes, go to step 9.

If no, go to step 10 if one or more of the following apply:

-- The SAVE query response does not confirm the immigration status shown on the immigration document.

-- The SAVE query response Eligibility Statement line shows the message “Institute Additional Verification.”

-- The SAVE query response information does not match all the information on the immigration document presented

STEP 9

Complete processing the SS-5.

STEP 10

Has the applicant been in the U.S. 10 calendar days or more?

If yes, request DHS to manually verify the immigration document and the person’s immigration status.

Complete Form G-845, Document Verification Request

Explain on the G-845 that the online SAVE data does not confirm the applicant’s immigration status or does not confirm the information on the immigration document;

Attach a clear, legible copy of the immigration document; and

Send it to the DHS, USCIS office

Thank you for your help...i'm going to try and get in touch with someone at the social security office or head back over there with my husband. Will keep you updated!

Same thing happened to me. I went to the office a day after my EAD arrived and was told my immigration status was not in the system and to come back in ten days. Thanks to MD youngs info I insisted that I do not need to come back, that they can manually verify the info instead. The woman reluctantly took my papers from me and 7 weeks later I got my new card.
