    C_Air23 got a reaction from Yudi85 in After EAD...After SSN...   
    Ok, so I have gotten my SSN print out yesterday and already applied for a California ID yesterday...and soon will take the written for a DL! My advice to everyone it GET STARTED RIGHT AWAY! Yes, I understand that people have been told to wait 10 days after your EAD was made! This is COMPLETELY FALSE! The same thing happened to me Tuesday...I went to Social Securtiy Office at 9 am and was told to come back in 10 days...I was disappointed...so what I did was... I went back to the same office around 1 pm and got someone else to help me...and she started filing my paper work right away... MAKE SURE YOU FILL OUT THE SSN FORM THEY HAVE IN THE OFFICE IF YOU ARE GETTING A SSN FOR THE FIRST TIME, with your EAD card, and birth certificate (which was the main document they wanted in the Daly City California office). After that, I asked when can I get my number, and she told me to come back THURSDAY and they will have my brand new SSN printout.. The physical card will come in the mail about 7-10 days.. As soon as I got my SSN printout, I went straight to the DMV and applied for a California ID...didn't take the DL written test yet cause I wanted to study more...lol... But prior to this, a friend gave me advice to wait 3 days after my print out of my SSN so DMV can get caught up with the Social Security update...but I took a chance and still went anyways...when I got to DMV I filled out the form, showed them my EAD and the process went smooth from there. I was waiting for them to tell me to wait 3 days, BUT they didn't which I sighed with relief...My friend who was in the same situation as me before gave me advice to wait 3 days from when I get my ssn print out because he said when he did his, he was told to wait3 days...but I took a chance yesterday and I guess my ssn was already in the system and updated...good thing I went...same thing with waiting 10 days after your EAD...completely false... So get started as soon as you guys can! Never wait.. Just go for it..because we've been taking risks and chances all our lives..so why stop now? I HOPE THIS GIVES YOU GUYS A CLEAR INSIGHT ON WHAT TO DO AFTER YOU GET YOUR SSN AND EAD's! GET STARTED RIGHT AWAY!

    C_Air23 got a reaction from Sinae in SSN experience   
    I went at 9 this morning, the lady said wait 10 days...and I went back again around 1 pm today hoping i wont get the same person that accomodated me this morning, thank goodness i got someone else! FIRST, fill out the form when applying for SSN for the first time...THEN present your EAD, Birth Certificate, and Passport...Birth Certificate was KEY to the office i went to. they looked for my birth certficate more than they paid attention to my passport. THEN ask me a couple of questions....I then asked when can I get my number and she said physical card gets to me about 2 weeks...BUT come back Thursday and they will have my number...they can print if out and give it to me!! NO NEED TO WAIT 10 DAYS! some people just doesnt know what they're doing! Im so happy I went back today! AHH!!

    C_Air23 got a reaction from Yudi85 in Read!!! Obtaining a SSN after EAD!! Wait 10 days..   
    Ok it is 9:30 am here in San Francisco and I just left Social Security! PLEASE PLEASE if you want to make sure you get a SSN when you go, just wait 10 days from when your EAD was issued. This lady told me my EAD was fairly new and have to wait 10 days.. So se told me to come back on the 22nd which was complete BS!! I know and read some people have been told the same thing but others were able to apply couple of days after they obtained their EAD card! Please bring the following items as well when you go, 1) EAD card 2) Foreign Passport 3) Birth Certificate! Those 3 are key! Although there are some items on their list that you can bring as well.. But those 3 are the things they look for.

    as far as i know, the renewal for a EAD is pretty simple in most cases. but in terms of DACA applicants, i think we will have to file for the I-821D along with the EAD again seeing how they go hand in hand. i dont think we'll be able to apply for one or the other when we reapply. the renewal process might be easier because we may not have to show all the paperwork that we did when we first applied.
    but i think we'll just have to see how it goes 2 yrs from now. fingers crossed its as simple, if not simpler, then it is now

    C_Air23 reacted to always_learner in Check Your DACA Case Status   
    Hi,
    So I remember trying this out like the first day I got my official receipt number, but when I type it in all I get is "Your case can not be found at this time in My Case Status. Please check your receipt number and try again. If you need further assistance, please call the National Customer Service Center at 1.800.375.5283."
    I even made an account and tried adding the case number.
    Is there any steps you have to take to actually view information on your particular receipt number?
    I'll probably just call that number tomorrow and see what they can tell me.
