Hi,

Need Help!

i have applied my SSN in my immigration process and checked 'YES' in ds260.

I have arrived Through JFK no question asked. I'm still waiting my social security for 17 days but nothing in mail. 

Can anybody tell me how much time it takes to deliver SSN in mailbox??? Or i have to apply for it inperson at SSA office?

Thanks!

Hey!

The fact that this box is checked in DS260 didn`t help me and I was waiting for a month for SSN to arrive.

Then I visited SS office where they told me they didnt` have any paperwork for me and I need to apply in person which I did right there. A week later I got it on mail.

My husband also checked the box to have his ss mail to him however it never came after 3 weeks we went in to the office to check the status which they told us that he had to apply because they didn’t see him in the system
