TN Holder, Received EAD, Reapply for SSN?

[kristianw 0]

Hello everyone,

Thanks again for all the helpful information on this forum!

I have a quick question. I received my EAD card last week. Do I need to reapply for a replacement SSN card, and if so, is there a certain wait period prior to reapplying for one?

Thank you!

K.

No, you do not re-apply. You only go back if you have a name change due to marriage.

I would wait to update until you have your GC, because the one you get with EAD will still say "not valid without authorization."

The number you already have is your number for life. Good luck.
