Work with SSN while EAD is renewing to be corrected

[DenisAlma 63]

Hello!

 

I received EAD card with AP combined ( so called ''combo card'' ).

 

My name was misspelled, due to my mistake, and I am afraid SSN will be misspelled as well.

 

Due to the fact that EAD processing times are much longer than for an SSN in a local SSA office, will I be able to work on SSN only while my EAD is being sent back to be corrected ?

 

I've read that SSN will demand the EAD card to match with the SSN, otherwise they wont issue/correct it, but, however, elsewhere I read that I might be able to change the name on SSN card much faster if I bring a document that proves my name is misspelled.

 

Will I be employed with SSN only ?

If your SSN card does not have the wording “Not valid to work without DHS authorization”, you can.

Probably not gonna happen.

I am in deep sh*t now since I was dumb enough to make such a mistake.

Thank you for your time and patience,
