Still waiting for SSN and GC

[Voilet 41]

Hi friends, i entered USA on January 26/2021. I haven’t received my SSN and GC yet. I set in person appointment in SSN office on February 19. It’s been 3 weeks waiting for my SSN from appointment day and a month and half in STATES. I tried calling SSN office every 3 days and there is no help at all. They say their computer system isn’t showing any record. People sitting in office neither have any idea nor even listen your questions properly. This is terribly frustrating 😣 What should I do ? Anyone has answer or gone through it?Appreciate your help.

Dear Voilet,

I was in the same situation. I kept calling and they would say basically they had no idea who I was. They said one day that it was up to USCIS to send them my info so that they could issue the card. 

And then one day, I called randomly and fell on a guy : "ok, no problem, this is what you are going to do : send me by express post mail the following document" :

- copy of your passeport 

- copy of birth certificate (and certified translation)

- copy of marriage certificate (and certified translation)

- copy of your visa (since you don't have your GC yet, give a photocopy of the stamp on your DOA day of arrival)

- and the form SS-5 that you can easily find on line. 

 

Send all this, and say, "As requested by your office over the phone, please find attached the following documents, etc, etc."

They will process your docs, and should be sending you back all your copies by snail mail. 

You will receive your card couple of weeks after. 

 

Take care and let me know,

Alix

(the irony is that weeks after, I received a call from a lady who said, ok we are good to have an appointment with you to issue your card - and I replied... I already have my card LOL)

Hi Alex. Thank you for responding. Good to hear from you. Yes I’ll send my documents to social security office on Monday. This is frustrating but this is what it is. Thank you for taking your time to writing for me. God bless
