After GC, do you have to go to the office to get a new SSN, or are there other request options?

I have a conditional green card, so I believe that I'm now eligible to get an SSN card without the DHS authorization only note. Can I request a new one by mail, or do I have to go to the social security office? 

 

Do I have to give this one back while I wait for a new one? And in that case, since I have two (one issued in 2015 on TN, one in 2018 on EAD)--can I give the 2015 one back and keep the 2018 one just in case, like if the new one gets lost in the mail and I need to show it for some reason?

Annoying. Oh well. Hopefully it's not too crowded. 

 

Thanks!

You to have to go in person to get it removed. Dw it is not much of a hassle to do.
