SAVE Database and SSN

[SaRy 73]

Hello, 

 

I arrived in the US 3 weeks ago on a K1 visa, got married and been searching for my name in the SAVE database (using both my passport number and my I-94 number) but I keep getting this message "No cases found that match the search criteria."

So what should I do now? Is that normal? Should I just wait a little longer? Should I call USCIS? Should I just go to the nearest SSN office, apply and get them to inquire for me via snail-mail? If I do so, how long would it take me to get an SSN (knowing that it takes longer if my name is not in the database)?

 

 

Thank you very much in advance,

We had the same issue. We ended up going to the social security office two weeks after his arrival, and he had no problem. I think they have different access to the SAVE database. As long as it has been two weeks since your arrival, I would suggest going into the office and applying.

We're just going to do the same then as it has been more than 3 weeks since my arrival. Thank you very much for your reply!

To clarify, the SAVE online case check only checks for active cases from government agencies. It is not the database itself. If you have not opened a case by applying then you will not have a result using case check

You're right. I applied today and now I can finally see my case in the database. Thank you!
