A#s in L2 based EAD & I-485 based EAD are different

[vs_vasan]

Hi,

My wife was earlier on L2 and based on that she got her EAD and a A#. So, using that she had applied for SSN and she started working. Then she got H1B visa and continued to work with the same SSN.

Recently she got her EAD based on I-485. In that EAD card she has a different A#.

So, my question is...since her L1 based EAD and I-485 based EAD has two different A#s, is she required to re apply for SSN once again? or is she required to tell the SSA office that her A# has changed? or she need not worry about it?

Please help.

Thanks

She does not need to change her SSN (that does not change, ever!) but USCIS will have to consolidate her A#s.
