Hello everyone!

I'm in the process of AOS and EAD right now (AOS from F-1). I changed my name on my SS card after marriage but it says the wording on the card "Valid for work only with DHS authorization", and I'm wondering how it would say on the card for a permanent resident and if I need to change mine later.

Thanks!

It says nothing for a permanent resident. They issue a new card that is unrestricted. And you should apply for an unrestricted SSN card after you receive your green card.

No No No!!!

When an individual was previously issued an SSN card with “NOT VALID FOR EMPLOYMENT” or with “VALID FOR WORK ONLY WITH INS (or DHS) AUTHORIZATION” printed on it and has been granted permanent residency, he or she can apply for a replacement SSN card that reflects the new immigration status.

An alien granted permanent residency status is eligible to be issued an unrestricted SSN card and will retain the originally assigned SSN.

Documents that establish lawfully admitted for permanent residence (LAPR)

-- I-551 card

NOTE: Some LAPR aliens have conditional 2-year I-551s (Alien Registration Receipt Card), subject to the limitation that they must apply for removal of the conditional basis 90 days before the second anniversary of the admittance date to the United States. A conditional I-551 is identified by an expiration date 2 years later than the admittance/adjudication date is acceptable proof of permanent residency.

-- Temporary I-551

Temporary evidence of immigrant status is issued for an alien to use until the permanent I-551 card is received. This may be a stamp in the individual's passport or on the I-94.

I was wondering about this but reading that last post gave me a headache, too much detail. It would have seemed simpler just to say yea, re-apply to get the message off the SSN card. Sorry, this immigration stuff is complex enough without including all the government mumbo jumbo on top of a simple question.

You don't have to be insulting, I just thought you over-stated a simple question but I guess that is your nature.

Hopefully, you won't get into a situation that you need the government mumbo jumbo, but I have found that knowing the government mumbo jumbo is an asset when dealing with SSA offices. Plus people shoudn't reply to questions when they have no idea what they are talking about.

It is obvious from this and other posts from you that you do know the mumbo jumbo but sorry for me saying it just gives me a head ache to try and read through all of that to get to the answer. It is easy enough to go to the government web site and read all the regulations about this and that. Why not just give a straight forward answer and then if the person needs more detail, give them the link. I don't know about others but to you you are just showing off.

Well let's put it to a vote. I will stop posting help here if the majority of people don't want my help, since there is nothing on this Website that I need and can spend my time doing other things.

My intentions weren't to have you stop posting, just don't make it so detailed that the average person gets tried of reading the post before getting to the actual answer. You, like other members who have been here longer, have a lot to offer and are very helpful with varioius immigration questions that otherwise would probably require a lot of work gleening information from various government web sites like the ones you post links to.
