Hello again VJ friends,

Today applied for SSN and told to wait for four weeks for my card to be delivered

Im a Filipina, on k1 visa

Documents needed:

  • only your passport

Where?

  • Search online the nearest SSA at your place

STEPS

  • We called and it opens at 9am so we went there at around 8:40am there were almost 10 people in line

TIP: if youre in a hurry, you can schedule an appointment, just call them

  • it opens at 9am and our things were scanned and walk through an Xray machine
  • A greeter at the entrance will ask you what you need, I said NEW application for SS, he gave me a number

Waiting time around 10minutes

TIP: While I wait, I fill out the application form (there is also forms online you can download)

  • At the counter: I said im on a k1 visa and he said did you bring your passport? and I showed him mine

QUESTIONS I ASKED:

>Sir, we are getting married soon, do you think it is better for me to wait for my marriage certificate before applying for my SS or do it now.

You can do it now and return with your marriage certificate to change your name.

>How long will I have to wait to get my SSN?

About 3-4 weeks

>How much do we need to pay?

Nothing, its free.

That's about it. We were done and out in 30minutes :) ofcourse my fiancé with me :)

Godbless all of us.

Faith can move mountains :D
