Congratulations. Isn't it 18 months that you're done with USCIS though? Removal of conditions isn't that too far off :whistle:

I believe she is an IR-1, so she gets to escape the ROC fun!

Speaking of ROC, we get to be filling buddies again Rob :hehe:

Well then, I stand corrected. I suppose I should have read more about the OP's background before posting. Mea culpa.

I hadn't even thought about RoC yet. LoL, Mel and I are still fighting over whose going to do the paperwork on that one. She did the Visa, I did the AoS, and now it's her turn again :lol:

Congr.!

A quick question..if i go to the SSA office and apply for a SSN#,wouldn't that confuse the office overall since I've already checked off on the original form...

Why did you need to go to the SSA office at the first place ?if you've already checked off the box on ur form,you were supposed to get it in three weeks right?

I just don't wanna end up having two SSN#....

The real reason I went to the SSO was........because I have spent two years on this website and have learned that even if you check that box, you're not getting one! You'll just sit around waiting for it and nottin! So, I figured I would go and apply and take my chances!! LOL And it paid off! I just don't think that check box and the whole application thing is actually connected to SSO, I think at one point it might have but not now! Hope this helps!
