    GC Activation & SSN questions

    Thanks Sm1smon, I see, then I will take care of i in September. Should I contact them by phone first, since it is the mentioned procedure on the USCIS website in case you dont receive your SSN in 30 days? As I read my message again, I feel that it could be misinterpreted a little. Of course I...

    Unlike yours, our business is still young, so sell it is not an option yet. We will drive our French business from US, we are in the process of recruiting someone but will manage that person from the US. Our idea is to create a Holding (in the us?) with a French branch and a US branch and...
