A Qick DS-230 Question

[Randy CA 0]

On the DS-230 there is a place where the sponsored immigrant can request that a Social Security Administration assign a SSN and issue a card. The DS-230 is to be filled out by the prospective immigrant and taken to the interview, in our case, in Moscow.

Is this the best time and place to make such a request? I worry about it getting lost in the shuffle. Or is it better to wait till the immigrant is in the USA and can go to the local SS office and make the request there?

Now, is the best practice.

What visa are we talking about???

Your timeline shows K-1, so if that is the case it makes no difference what you check on the DS-230, it WILL NOT generate an SSN, you need visit SSA and apply for the SSN within 75 days after arrival in the K-1.

You may want to fill in profile details with "Filed for" indicated, so others can at a glance quickly understand your immigrations status. YOU ARE NOT N/A

Like I said in another thread, this thread was moved to a more appropriate place in the forum, and the person who moved it is named Charles, so my guess is it means "moved by Charles".
