    i didn't realize it's 3 years instead of 5 years for greencard holder who is married to US citizen! LPR starts with conditional GC, right?
  2. _Diver
    What is the next step? Removal of conditions and then N400 in 5 years minus 9 months? Does that clock start as of the day of i485 approval, which is today for us? yes, local office is Boston.

    i'm going to wait for GC and give it a few weeks after for SSN. I applied for SSN as part of EAD and 485. Maybe somehow it clashed, I don't know.

    We went to SSA after we didn't get requested SSN as part of EAD. They told us they see her in the system, but couldn't apply for SSN in the office and that we just had to wait. They said it wasn't the first case and something was holding things up on immigration side of things. So maybe we get it now. I already file for tax extension bc of that.

    we still didn't get the SSN with EAD that was received 2 months ago. I wonder if it will come with GC now?
  6. _Diver started following GC in less than 4 months

    I married someone on ESTA and we applied for a GC in December and today we got a notification that i485 was approved. Less than 4 months! How is it possible??

    looks like it should arrive within 7 days? Please contact a Social Security office if you do not receive your SSN card within seven business days after receiving your EAD or "Green Card". Please have this flyer and your EAD or "Green Card" as it may help us answer your questions.

    we got the EAD card today. paperwork was received by USCIS on 12/19, so it took only 1.5 month. much faster then anticipated. the case is closed on USCIS web site. so i assume we won't get any update on the timeline for SSN card?

    does every employer do I-9 form? i think the answer to that would resolve my confusion.
  14. _Diver
    i moved to US on H1b in 1999 and except the original employer, once i got the GC i changed many employers and nobody cared for my status. my wife is adjusting on marriage based grounds. she is about to receive the EAD.

    silly question. let's say i-485 gets denied, which invalidates the EAD. in my field (software engineering) nobody cares about immigration status. and as long as one has SSN, they are ok. how does it work then?
  17. _Diver
    thank you for responses everyone. what happens to EAD/SSN if i-485 doesn't get approved? I would assume EAD would be invalid, but how about SSN?
  18. _Diver
    So it seems like SSN arrives some weeks later after EAD. Which seems strange to me, since EAD is literally an authorization to work. I assume there is no point to look for work until SSN arrives? Also, does approval for EAD along say anything about overall chances for i-485 being approved?
  19. _Diver
    awesome, thank you very much everyone
