US SSN for K-1 Fiancé(e)s

Getting married on a K-1 visa? Your fiancé(e) can apply for a Social Security number (SSN) after you tie the knot!

Here's How:

  1. Get Married (Within 90 Days of Arrival): This is crucial!

  2. Apply for Adjustment of Status: This process often involves applying for an EAD (work permit) where your fiancé(e) can also apply for an SSN while waiting.

  3. Visit SSA Office with Documents: Passport, visa, I-94, and marriage proof are typically required.

  4. SSN in a Few Weeks! Processing times may vary, but it's usually quick.

  • Employment opportunities

  • Access to government benefits

  • Building credit history in the US
