I have a question, on the social security application, what would i put on the part that says citizenship:

1. I know its not US CITIZEN

2. Legal alien authorized to work (I received an alien number when i applied for AOS but does that make me "legal"?)

3. legal alien not allowed to work .....i know it can't be this one

4. other**

**5. If you check “Legal Alien Not Allowed to Work” or “Other,” you must provide a document from a U.S. Federal, State, or local government agency that explains why you need a Social Security number and that you meet all the requirements for the government benefit. NOTE: Most agencies do not require that you have a Social Security number. Contact us to see if your reason qualifies for a Social Security number.

Should I x on other and provide the EAD?

Answer is...

Legal alien authorized to work

you are legally in the US and authorized to work with your EAD :star:

The EAD makes you legal for the time being and allowed to work. So I would check number 2.

Hi EM Vandaveer! Did you receive any email or text for this, or it just suddenly showed up in your mailbox?

No, nothing, because I could not even register for e-mail/text updates. USCIS website won't let you if it can't find your case and it still can't find mine. :blush:

Oh really? Okay I'll be waiting for that! :) I have a question, when I did my biometrics the lady said that my address on file is still my old address. I moved already and called USCIS to change my address and I got a confirmation letter in the mail about the change of address that they updated it already. I got that like 2weeks ago. Is there still any chance they will send it to my old address?

Correction on my update! I just checked my email it says that

EAD - they ordered card production.

AP - they mailed me approval notice.

Does this mean I will get AP before EAD?
