Hi,

We submit SSI application on February 25 and still did not get the SSI. Do you know how long it take to get SSI on the K1 process.

Thanks in advance.

mc2000ch,

According to your timeline, you arrived in US Feb.22 - applying for the SS-card 3 days later (in almost all cases) is too soon - they (The SSA office) should have told you that. The reason (unless something has dramatically changed recently) is that it takes about 2 weeks, once you arrive in the US, to show up in their computer system.

Typically - it seems to take 2-4 weeks to get the card. (Of course some get it faster while others it takes a bit longer...) Did they look you up in their system when you applied? Did you apply for it in your maiden name?

I assume your mean SSN application. SSI is Supplemental Security Income, which is a benefit paid to low income people over age 65 and low income disabled adults and children.

Have you gone back into the office to ask what's going on?

Waiting for 7 weeks is kinda too long.

On the SSN receipt, it states "If you do not receive your Social Security card within 2 weeks, please let us know. You may call, write or visit any Social Security office. If you visit an office, please bring this receipt with you."

So I think you'd better contact SSA to see what's going on!! Good Luck!!

i would go back to the ss office and speak with someone directly instead of calling. Bring the paper with you that they gave you when you applied for your proof.
