Hello,

What happens after you enter US on the CR1 ? When do you get the Green card and Social Security Card ? (Assuming you checked the options to get the Social Security card as part of your visa application).

My wife entered the US on the CR1 visa on Jan 6'th, 2010 and we are hoping to get her GC (Green Card) and Social Security card by Jan end. Can someone verify whether this is correct ? Thanks,

Desi

I received my green card a month after my POE. If you wife has received her welcome letter she can track her green card production via the USCIS site using the receipt number on the letter ( the I-797C notice.)

I had to apply at the local SSN office for my card even though I checked off the box on the DS-230. I applied 3 weeks after entry and received the card 6 days later.

Good luck. :thumbs:
