SSN Application form Q. 3 Citizenship check box

[Nicola&Matthew 0]

Question 3 on the SSN form is Citizenship... the SSN guidelines state:

If you check "Legal Alien Not Allowed to Work," you must provide a document from the U.S.

Federal, State, or local government agency that explains why you need a Social Security numberand that you meet all of the requirements for the U.S. government benefit. NOTE: Not all U.S.

State or local benefits are acceptable for non-work SSN purposes. Contact SSA to see if your reason qualifies.

If you check "Other," you must provide a document from the U.S. government agency that

explains why you need a Social Security number and that you meet all of the requirements for a

Federal benefit except for the number.

As I have not yet applied for AOS I would check "legal alien not allowed to work"? or "other"? I also understand that I have to apply for this in my maiden name untill I get EAD or AOS approved as we have not yet recieved our marriage certificate?

Thank you
