Unrestricted SSN card at SSA office after GC in hand

update :

today 6/6 finally SAVE check status changed to "returned to agency" after being "case under review" since 4/17 ( even though i went to SSA office on 4/10). took 2 months for DHS / USCIS to verify this issue. super mad ! i even reached out to ombudsman early may and after back and forth, ombudsman responded on 5/31 that DHS said its within time frame and probably case will be processed within 14 business day.

 

i immediately called SSA office today and as we speak, they said " it literally just verified now". they said i should received the card within a week

 

timeline to get unrestricted SSN card :

4/1 GC approved

4/8 GC in hand

4/10 went to SSA office and they said have to wait for DHS to verify. SAVE check "returned to agency" when they did the check while i was there

4/17 SAVE check changed to " case under review"

6/6 SAVE check changed to "returned to agency" after almost 2 months

 

as for Real ID DL at DMV

4/28 i made sure i waited longer time, but yet, when i was in DMV it SAVE check still pending

5/31 called and they said DL is being printed. SAVE check for DMV never changed since 4/28 " case returned to agency" when i was there

6/5 called again to double check and they said DL card has printed just wait the mail.

 

i was in touch with someone that has similar issue even though she got her GC back in 2022 and never bothered to go to SSA office till April 2023 ( only few days before me ) and she reported that her SAVE check finally changed to "returned to agency" on 5/31/23. we literally a week apart on the last leg of the verification.

 

my take is : it doesnt matter how long u wait, 10 days, 10 business days, 1 month or even few month to go to SSA office to get ur SSN card. DHS supposed to updated our status on SAVE check but they missed a bunch of people and we wont know until we go there.

Now that your SAVE changed to returned to agency did you get your unrestricted SSN issued?

It’s so weird that the letter said you can use your SSN only if you have authorization from Homeland Security. Like how is that a confirmation of an unrestricted SSN?
