  • EAD / SSN, I-485 interview

    Hello everyone!

    I just got my EAD in the mail yesterday. I'm wondering how I can get my SSN? Will it be mailed to me or do I need to get it myself?

    We received a notification about a week ago that our application will be scheduled for interview soon. We live in SoCal and filed at the Chicago Lockbox. Would anyone know an estimated time of wait before the interview schedule arrives? Thank you so much! ❤️

    Did you check the option to get SSN? If you did your card should arrive by mail in a few days.

    I have read people that get it the same day, most a week after the EAD and very few at day 10 or so after EAD.
    Nov 2018 - Package sent - EB - Texas Service Center
    Day 1 - Package received at the lockbox
    Day 999 - Card delivered to me - Aug 2021

      Hello, yup I did. I see. Maybe it'll be here in a few days it took about 2 months after I did my biometrics before we heard from them. They sent a notice for RFE. A week or two after they received the RFE response and documents, we received an email that my EAD card is in production. Hang in there 😊

        What kind of evidence did they ask for? Would you mind sharing your timeline and the category with which you apply?

              Oh, sorry to hear that. Mine got approved a week after they received our RFE response. They sent me multiple email updates about my EAD from approval, card production to when they mailed it, when the post office picked it up and delivered it. The card arrived few days before the official letter of EAD approval arrived. Then the SSN followed. Have you tried asking them? On their email they mentioned that if I don't receive it by Feb 28 I should contact them.

              I forgot to include the category. We filed I-130 and I-485 family-based. My husband and I got married last year 😊

                  It was sent separately. The EAD approval letter was in a USCIS envelope, the card itself was in a USPS Priority Mail enevelope and the SSN came in an envelope with the Social Security name.

                    how long for SSN to arrive?

                    I got my EAD on Saturday, 23 Sep 2019.
                    And still got no SSN today, 27 Sep 2019.
                    My boss needs my SSN to process payroll but i still have no SSN.
                    How long expected to wait, guys?
                    What i need is just a SSN number.

                    Is there any tools that i can lookup my SSN from my EAD + full name + Date of Birth?

                      Mine arrive just few days after I got my EAD. Based on some responses on this thread they said the SSN should arrive within 10 days if the EAD arrived first. Try checking the Social Security website if you can follow up or something.

                        I tried SSA website, and gonna register an account,
                        but again, no SSN does not allow me to get an account.
                        4 DAYS PASSED already ... still no SSN.

                        Did you remember how many days after you got EAD and you got your SSN?

                          I see that it can take up to 10 days. If you don't get the card by mid next week, go to the SSA office to see what is going on. Good luck, I hope you get it by Monday.
