After arriving in the US using the K-1 visa, you typically wait about 2 weeks to allow the SAVE database to be updated with your information. Now that the I-94 is automated and electronic, go to the CBP wesite and get a copy of your I-94 form. Then go to the local SSA office and apply in the VISA name. You will need your passport, the visa in the passport, the SS-5 form, and the copy of the I-94. You might want to bring along a copy of teh BC just to cover yourself as some require a second form of ID and proof of age.

Good luck,

Dave

Take a read, when you get a chance.

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.
