This will most likely be moved since I'm not exactly sure where to post it. (Not quite part of the K-1, bot not quite AOS either)

Anyway, I was wondering what the average wait others had to go through for their Social Security card?

We stopped into the office back in early June, around the 5th or 6th I believe, and they told us we would receive the card in 2 weeks.

We have yet to receive our card and for now are just being patient, but as time drags on I am wondering if this is ordinary?

Hmm.. We have been waiting since mid-June, so a little bit less, but it has been longer than the two weeks for us as well. I was thinking about posting this question as well!

Following for updates!

We waited about a month for my wife's (then fiancee's) card to arrive. We went back to the SS office check on it and found out that the person we dealt with had no idea what she was doing so the card didn't process. Another person took the info, filed and we had the card in 10 days.

I suggest going back to the office and checking with for the status.

There's a forum just for the Ssn, here it is http://www.visajourney.com/forums/forum/156-social-security-numbers/

When I applied in January, my card got back to me in about a week after filing. My suggestion is to call the office you went to and inquiry about it. They may be checking with dhs, and can take longer, if you applied with a name different from your passport, for example.

Good luck!

My fiancee applied on June 17, and we are still waiting. She called the local office today, and they told her they were waiting on immigration to say it was ok to give her a ss#. They said that process is 2 to 4 weeks. I hope they did it right. When she apolied, the SS guy said she was in the system.

Turns out ours didn't get delivered because my finances name wasn't on the mailbox. I went to the post office and they made a note to let the delivery guy know my address can accept mail for stuff in his name. I'm not super confident the deliverer will notice or remember, but it's about all I can do at this point it seems.

This completely! The post office should know as well. That happened to our daughter.

I kinda of had the thought that it may be in issue in the back of my mind when we applied, but unfortunately my landlord refused to put him on the mailbox without him being on the lease, and he couldn't get on the lease without a SS number for their background checks..

The post office is aware now though so hopefully it gets where it needs to be this time around.
