5 weeks later and still not SS card. Also No case found in SAVE

[Jorge V 195]

Hey all,

 

I know this has been asked a few times but wanted to get your input.

 

It's been four weeks since our POE and still no sign of an SSN. We received the GC over two weeks ago. I ran a self check on the SAVE database but there are no matching cases. Does this mean that the SSA has not attempted to verify my wife's status? Could it be a sign that we have to go to a physical office to get it sorted out? Or should we just wait?

 

The reason why we don't simply go into an office is that we're out of the country while my wife finishes up her job here. She actually works for a multinational and they're simply transferring her, but require an SSN to do so. They also require her to be there on November 1st but she cannot miss any more days here, so having to travel to the US to go into an SSA office would be troublesome.

 

One final question, I see that our current city (Guadalajara, Mexico) has an FBU office at the embassy that seems to have a Social Security office as well. Does anyone know if we can apply for an SSN/check status at one of these foreign FBUs?

exactly in the same position!! - approved for US Immigration Visa and entered US September 9th as POE at JFK -Stayed  for a few days only to apply for SSN and to open bank account and then travelled back to the UK.
Surprisingly, as its only been 7 weeks since POE,  we have received our US Permanent Resident Cards( 10 year Validity) yesterday but disappointingly no news yet on the Social Security Number
Unsure as to why the delay with SSN and having called the office for a status update they were unbale to tell me anything other than' visit a SSN Office' and enquire in person.
I guess, it’s just as well that I have another short trip planned in 2 weeks’ time and hope to get this sorted out but when we originally applied we were told '3 -weeks' and then to call the toll free number they gave

Deferred inspection CBP office is what you need. Or if going back through an airport secondary to check what's in SAVE.

Yep, we got the same advice from the SSA: call if you don't receive it within 3 weeks. But when you call you have to enter your SSN to proceed. I was eventually able to get a person but they still weren't able to help.

 

We ended up taking a trip to the US just to get it sorted out. We went to our local SSA office, waited in line for about 1 hour, and gave our SS-5 to the attendant. She said that there was no record of us applying for an SSN (even though we checked the box on the DS-260). She submitted the SS-5 and we received the card 6 days later.

Many thanks-

yes, so frustrating- especially as we actually hand completed the ss form and got a receipt etc but now being told they have no update and for us to go in again

I applied to SSA Manassas office on june 2017 for a ssn and nothing for now. I'm a gc holder.In my self check SAVE appear that "case returned to agency". On december I visited the office and they saw me that is an error in database SSA against USCIS. What shoud I do ? Heeelp !

Google cbp deferred inspection offices and call one of them if you can’t go to the airport that processed your immigrant visa. 

 

Why have you waited 6+ months to follow up?

HEELP  I'm a green card holder.As a result of the contacts I had with Social Security Administration / Manassas, I did nothing solved about my ssn because when they quiz the SAVE program there is a mismatch between the data entered and the data in the SAVE program. When I enter "case verification number" xxxxxxxxxxxx indicated by the SSA in SAVE Case Check the message "cases returned to agency" continuously appears. So my case is blocked and I do not know when it will be resolved, since it's been almost eight months since I applied for a SSN. In my case it was a serious error that arose when the United States Embassy in Bucharest Romania issued for me on December ,2015 the IR5 emigration visa with the wrong year of birth 1963 instead of 1953. I noticed this error only in March 2016 when I received the green card from USCIS. I immediately began the process of replacing the green card, and in May 2017 I received the green card corrected. . The problem is that in the USCIS/DHS database still exist the 1963 birthday wrong, and that's why the SAVE program is returning a mismatch between data. Advice me please what shoud I do ?
