Hey I was just wondering if you already have a Social Security Number and Card from a previous Visa to the US, do you need to reapply for a new card/number once in the US on a K-1 Visa, or can I go ahead and keep/use my old number?

Once you get your green card you might want "Valid Only with Work Authorization" (if it is on there) removed

Yes she will keep it for life. Visit any SS OFFICE after receiving green card and they will issue a new card without restrictions ...

I was wondering the same thing. I got a Social Security number 5 years ago when i had a J1 visa becuase i was working on a US summer camp. This was through CCUSA who organised a social worker to set us up at orientation. I never actually needed to use it but wondered if it was still valid or if i will need to get a new one due to why/how i got the first one and the circumstances. Is there a way to check it and any guidelines attached to it possibly?

Yes you can still use it. SSNs don't expire or become invalid. In fact you're not supposed to get a new one if you already have one. Doesn't matter if you got it on a J1. It's still fine.
