  • SSN after EAD

    Hello everyone,
    Hope y'all are doing ok in those crazy times.
    So my question is: I did check the box to receive my SSN with my work permit. I got my work permit May 19 2020, no updates on SSN so I decided to call my field office in FL since it was longer than 7 days that USCIS advise to wait. First of all, the lady that was on the phone was surprised that I can get SSN with EAD and that someone told me to contact them after 7 days, as usually it takes 2-4 weeks. Then she asked for my USCIS number on my work permit, checked something and said that I have to come to the field office with necessary documents and fill out the application. I asked her when do they going to open the office back to what she answered "oh we don't know maybe in 2 weeks but not sure, you can call the 1-800 number sometime next week and ask maybe they give you updates". Well, I don't think it's good when person that works in the office doesn't know when they are going to open the office again...but anyway
    My question is - how long did you guys wait/still wait for SSN? what if I go there and by some miracle my SSN comes in the mail next day? Do they control those things in any way?

    Thanks in advance

    We just received SSN yesterday for EAD approved on April 28. It seems to take a month for some people while others receive it the same week that they receive the EAD.

        We received ours exactly 2 weeks after EAD, this was over a year ago.

        I have read recent reports that the wait could be 4-5 weeks.
        Nov 2018 - Package sent - EB - Texas Service Center
        Day 1 - Package received at the lockbox
        Day 999 - Card delivered to me - Aug 2021
