Ok, we applied for a Social Security card when my wife came into the good ol USA. Got it quick. We applied 14 days after entry and about 6 days later we had the card in hand. We got married on 12/12/12. San Diego took about 4 weeks to get the Marriage License to us... We got it the first week of January and immediately went and changed her name.

She got a confirmation letter at the office saying two weeks. It's over 3 weeks. No card. Her i-94 expires on 2/9/2013. Will they eventually send her a new card or not or will she be denied the new card because her status is expiring? Does it matter? We know the number, but would like to have the card. She had to surrender the previous card upon the name change.

Thanks!

David

How would we know that? With the SSA, everything is possible.

If you absolutely want to have the new card, go over there again and see if the card is being processed to be mailed. Don't be surprised if you get a totally wacko answer about your wife's expiring I-94 or that they need to check with the USCIS database or any other #######.

There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all . . . . The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality, than with the other citizens of the American Republic . . . . There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.

So this is what happened today:

She went to the SSA to see what's up. Apparently, they can't issue her new card because her status expires on 2/9/13. They couldn't do the name change they said with the marriage certificate because they name hasn't been updated with immigration??? Let me remind you, she has a SS number, this was to just change her name after the marriage.

Guy told me to file taxes quick because as of 2/9/13, the number will be invalid... lol

Ok, whether they issue the card or not and whether or not the SSA confirms her new name with immigration should be irrelevant. She has a new document from the State proving her new identity with the marriage certificate. So basically her name is reverting back to Portocarrero Tomapasca as the change to Strausser is still pending and because of her i-94 expiring will ultimately be denied.... Weird huh?

So I'm just filing taxes in her maiden name tonight and will write the explanation down to immigration on the I864 why it says P... T... instead of Stra....

Anything else I can do?
