Applying for Social Security Number

[KikydeUS 1]

Hello Guys,

 

Another chapter has now just started; my fiancee and son entered the US on November 15 , we are planning to get married within 90 days according to the law and I wanted to apply for their social security cards so that I can be able to claim them in my tax return. I reported to SSA this morning and they have told me that I have to provide the form i94 for my fiancee and i765 (Employment Authorization card ) for my son who is just 9 months old.

 

My question is to know if I will be able to claim them in my tax return without SSNs? on the i765 form , they are asking for A# but I think no A# had been given to my son (k2); so where am I going to find that number from to be able to apply for the EAC?

 

Also, my plan is to marry my fiancee within 90 days and delay the adjustment of status until I am ready financially (to pay the fees to adjust their status). I have called the USCIS and they told me there is no deadline as to when the adjustment of status has to take place; can anyone share his/her experience about this ?

 

Please, What can I do if I want to claim my dependents in my tax return without social security numbers? the EAC is more than 360$ for a baby of 9 months old; I read somewhere and advised to apply for ITIN; how does it work? Please guys, share your own experience of just a piece of advice with me. I thought the stress was over!

Why would a baby need an I-765?  Why would Social Security need that to assign a number?  My husband received his social security number prior to marriage and months prior to filing an I-765.  I think you got some very wrong info.

 

You have until April 2018 to file 2017 tax returns.  Plenty of time to get SS# by then.  

There is no deadline for filing AOS but know that she will be out of status until the filing is made.  I would complete it as soon as possible.  You can review our timeline to see our AOS history.  Use the advanced search tool to see tons of other posts about AOS filing deadine/when to file posts.  There have been many topics posts on this same subject before.
