10 -14 days each time.

Ill be coming back in each 12 weeks. Max 15. May I ask, who are CBP?

No I didnt

I entered USA in October 2015 to activate greencard. Then I exited in November. I re-entered July 2016. May I exit again? I want to go do 3 months at a time doing contract work abroad. Is this allowed? Thank you.

Hi Guys. I entered USA on Oct 17th. I have not gone to a SS office about getting a SS card. I understand that I need to do nothing, just wait till the SS card is sent to the address given on the DS260. Today is Nov' 5th. Should the SS Card not have been sent out by now? Thanks.

Oh I see. Where does that 165 need to be paid? Was that not included when we paid at interview? Thanks.

From Home country Suzie. Ill pop onto the dmv website and take a look. A dmv office is just round the corner from where im staying right now, so I might pop in there in morning as well.

Guys, I would like to convert my driving license to a NYC one. I think Simon may have something on his blog on this but I cant seem to locate it. Could anyone point me there? Thank you

Thanks for that information Susie. Soorry now to be a pest with one more little question. If the ss card is going to be automatically sent to address given, is there any need for me to go to a ss office in NYC?

Thats great Susie. Do you know why they asked me to carry xrays in hand luggage?

hi Guys, Just a quick 2 questions if I may. 1. All I need to hand over at Immigration is the brown sealed envelope given to me at interview plus the xrays which are on a cd? 2. Will all of this happen in Dublin or JFK? Thank You

Thanks Euro. Hope its sooner rather than later!

Oh, that's the key piece of information I was looking for Susie. Here is roughly what I hope will happen. I arrive in NYC later this week. I start looking for employment and a place to stay. After approx 10 days, my relative in Chicago receives my greencard and ss card. Then he couriers them to...

Thanks for info re. I-9. Re. address; at interview I gave address of a close relative in the midwest. However I am not going out there. I'm going to NYC, as I feel there might be better work opportunities there.

Thanks for that reply Euro. So you mean to say I wont have a ss number for those first few weeks? How can employers take me seriously when I tell them I don't have a ss number (yet)? Also, I will be staying at hostels/hotels at first. What address can I give them to send my ss card to? Thanks.
