How to Apply Social Security Number (SSN) in 2023 | My Experience

[@Jazzmin554]

Your videos are great ❤ but i needed my ssn so bad for a job application I had to pay someone online for help

[@peppysage]

See Social Security Number is a unique number given to all residents of the USA (temporary of permanent) if you are not in the US, you cannot hold an SSN. If anyone promises you to do that for you in exchange for money then it's a fraud. Don't fall prey to such situations.

Who u pay?

[@Jazzmin554]

Deels cafe

[@Jazzmin554]

On ig

[@Johnnydoggs3]

He on ig?

[@dishadoshi]

On which address they mail the card?

[@peppysage]

Any address which you give at the SSN office. This could be your home address, but if you haven't rented an apartment yet you can give them a nearby address such as your friend's.

HI HOW ARE YOU QUICK QUESTION CAN I APPLY FOR THE SSN AFTER STAYING WITH MY GRANPARENTS FOR MORE THAN 1 WEEK IN THE STATES ?

[@peppysage]

Yes you can

[@humaripragati]

Very clearly explained

[@anjumsyed5227]

Hi. How to book the prior appointment at SSA office. Can we fill the online form while in India and then visit SSA office after 5 days of landing in us for i94 to reflect the latest entry OR we can fill the form once in US and then directly walk in to nearest SSA office ?

[@peppysage]

Once in the USA , you have to fill the application form. You can do it online or walk to your nearest SSA office and fill-up a physical form. However, doing it online is convenient as you don't have to be there more than once.

[@khalidfarooq4893]

Thanks, I come often to USA from uk as visitor, Can I apply for SSN no ?

[@peppysage]

Tourists cannot get Social security number in the USA

[@MandeepAmericawala]

Very good information

[@peppysage]

Thank you. It means a lot

[@foodtravelpeace]

Do you know if I can provide my cousin's mailing address who stays in a different state? as i do not have a permanent address yet at the time of application.

[@peppysage]

To use your cousin's address you have to live in the same state as you can only apply for SSN at your nearest SSA office.

[@skyline786]

Dear can i use the hotel address for the card ? OR have to be flat/ home address please?

[@peppysage]

You can put your hotel address for SSN but before that make sure that your hotel is ready to receive mail for you. However, once you find permanent accommodation for you, consider changing your address with the SSA

[@skyline786]

@@peppysage I am very pleased to you. I am UK citizens but I want to do Amazon in US thats why I need the SSN card for it. Kindly let me know please one month will be ok for me to get SSN card? Best Regards Have a nice weekend

[@iraqigamer3741]

Hi me and my family came to USA with a2 visa my dad is the diplomat he works in a foreign embassy in USA and I am a family member can I get a social security number and how please help me

[@peppysage]

This might help principal A-2 Visa holders are eligible for SSNs and can be issued a card with the legend "Valid for Work Only With DHS Authorization." A-2 family members may only be assigned SSNs if they apply for and are granted authorization to work by DHS. Per guidance from the SSA, principal A-2 Visa holders must present the required evidence of age, identity and lawful alien status at any Social Security office to be assigned an SSN. The DSCA point of contact for this issue is Ms. Dawn Burke, [phone]

[@abrarbaig7233]

For applying SSN the officers will take my passport or not .?

[@peppysage]

They will see your passport in original.

How to get I-94 document before applying for SSN ?

[@peppysage]

You can download your I-94 from this website i94.cbp.dhs.gov/I94/#/home

[@madhaviaekulaisaac9427]

Can hotel address be given as mailing address in the form as we would not be having any address during our start days

[@jyotijaiswal1559]

Is that okay if we use hotel address as a mailing address via filling SSN form

[@peppysage]

@@jyotijaiswal1559 No, because SSN will be your address proof and your address will be mentioned at the back alongside the document. So make sure you rent an apartment and then apply for SSN. You would have to update your address every time you change home at the SSN office.

[@JP-og4pf]

Thanks for the info @peppy

You are welcome 😊

Hi, I am Nurse and I am permanent residence in Canada, I want to transfer my license from Canada to US, but California board asking for SSN, how can I apply SSN when you are reside in Canada.

[@peppysage]

I am not sure about it but I think to get a SSN for the USA, you have to first reside here in the US. You can clarify with your employer.

[@nimnim3256]

Hai, i am a respiratory therapist from india currently working in kuwait. I wanted to write a exam NBRC for that they are asking SSN. I m planing to go us in future. But for now i dont have any job offer letter or visa. Is ther any possiblity to get ssn. Waiting for you reply.

[@peppysage]

Hi, as per my knowledge, only residents of America can apply and get SSN. So if any exam requires SSN then it means that the exam is specifically meant for those residing in the US. Hope that helps.

[@PushparajKrishnan]

@nimnim3256 You can apply from where you are it's called ITIN works similar to ssn👍🏼
