goodafternoon to all

what does my husband need to apply for a Social security card. He hasnt received his green card yet does he really need it?

Thanks

Yes he needs it.

It's the only way he can work & file taxes.

It hasn't been that long since you crossed.

Wait about 3 weeks since POE and if you don't get it, go to a SS office and apply for one.

Ask them to look you up first to make sure you aren't in the system.

Doesn't need the green card. Can be done with just his passport with the visa and the POE stamp in it.

EDIT: At the SSN office, they would enter the info in their system which (apparently) cross checks against the immigration database. Once approved he should get it within 2 weeks. Waiting for the "auto-SSN" (because a checkbox was checked on the DS-230 form) is a hit-and-miss and could take quite longer.

As the other member stated it hasn't been that longs since he made it to the states so just give it a few more weeks, I heard of other member who have gotten the green card first the the ssn and vase verse.
