When the EAD gets  approved, should my husband get a new SSN card as well? 

 

 

I'm so happy for you. It's good to see some move and keep hope.

Social Security Administration required me to show physical document to issue SSN. Be prepared that it takes up to 1 month or more than that to receive the SSN. However you can apply for job with the receipt while waiting for the card.

Does he already have a SS card? If not then he should apply for a new social security card, but wait until you have the card before you do so. If i remember correctly you don't pay a fee. The EAD will serve as the List A document when he fills out his I-9, so he won't have to show that in addition to any other documents.

 

I would also wait to get the physical social security card (7-10days) before applying for a drivers license, trust me it helps a lot and would save you a lot of hassle especially if you are applying for the REAL ID.

I applied for Drivers license right after I did Biometrics with NOA1, it is Real ID. They checked on SAVE system and it was approved. Once you have a priority date adjusting status you have lawful status.

Not sure how it works for other states, but in WI they needed a physical copy of my SS card, specifically because it says on the NOA that document isn't proof of legal status or something to that effect.

He has a SS card but on it, it says that he isn't allowed to work (can't remember the wording).  So I'm trying to see if he needs a new one that doesn't say this

That's fine he doesn't need to apply for a new card. I would wait until you get the GC to go back and remove the conditions on the card. Right now it probably says can't work without authorization. If you apply for new one with EAD it will say same thing. EAD counts as a list A document. Hope this helps.

 

This is from USCIS website:

LIST A DOCUMENTS

Documents that Establish Both Identity and Employment Authorization

The documents on List A show both identity and employment authorization. Employees presenting an acceptable List A document should not be asked to present any other document. Some List A documents are in fact a combination of 2 or more documents. In these cases, the documents presented together count as one List A document.
