EAD

[Dakine 26]

Anyone know how long you have to wait for SSA to get you in their data base so they can issue a SSN after you receive the EAD?

umm... you need to apply at a SS office to get an application for SS # anytime between 1 and 2 weeks after entering at a US entry.

Once you get your EAD and you havent applied for SSN, get your SSN number. As long as you have been in the US for more than 2 weeks, you are already in the system.

I'm asking when you GET your EAD that you applied for with the AOS how long before you can apply for SSN. Otherwise how long does it take for SSA to have you in their SAVE system?

Hmmm, well we are still waiting for Jenny's SS card, we filed again for the 5th time right after her EAD arrived. As far as the 'in the system or saved' according to the local USCIS Office in OKC (we made a infopass awhile back), all information is placed in SAVE when you first arrived in the USA. However, the local SS Office here states that they can't find the information or its different (??) Its suppose to be the same system Haole at the SS Admin & USCIS.

The SS Number has been the only nightmare in this whole process.

Rin and the children's EAD's arrived in the mail on August 27th (they have an issued date of August 19th). We went to the SSA office on the 28th and applied. The SS cards arrived in the mail yesterday (Sept 6th). So I think you can apply as soon as you have the card in hand.
