USCIS 擴大與社會保障局的合作夥伴關係.
August 9, 2021
USCIS announced today that all the applicants who are filing for lawful permanent resident status will now be able to apply for a Social Security number (SSN) or a replacement card as part of the adjustment of status application process. Formerly, these individuals had to apply for a Social Security number at a Social Security office. USCIS is revising Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status, and will include the additional questions needed to apply for an SSN or a replacement card.
After approving Form I-485 Application, in most cases, the USCIS will electronically transmit the data to the Social Security Administration. Upon receiving the data, the Social Security Administration will automatically assign an original SSN or issue a replacement card, as appropriate. This cooperation with the Social Security Administration will not increase the filing fee for Form I-485. This change to Form I-485 will go into effect immediately. The applicants can begin filing using the updated form I-485 today.
