work permit/SS Number

[SilkRoad 0]

My wife just recieved her EAD work permit card. We will go to Social Security Administration office to apply for her SS card next week and I was wondering if they give you the SS# right there, or whther you have to wait for it in the mail?

Thanks!

In the mail normally in about 2 weeks. Hopefully her info is in their data base by the time she applies.

You can have your number the next business day. The SSN is computer-generated and is run automatically by their system overnight. Just like I did- I went back to SSA the next business day, and they gave me my SSN in a printed paper in a letter format certifying my number. So, I started applying for jobs online that very same day. However for the card, I received it after a week.
