Did they tell you that you will get the card in 8-10 days through a letter or only verbally when you visited them
Sidpri:
It was verbally that they told me I would receive it in 8-10 days.
It looks like I am stuck in name check (lol).
I got mine in 4 days after getting that letter.
I called my local ss office to try and see if they verified my info with cis,so that maybe I could get the number over the phone.The rep wouldn't even bother to check,said that immigration takes 4-6 weeks before they send ss the info.But dang would it have hurt to check!!!...Everything in my local area sucks!...How do you talk to a customer rep on the 1-800 number if you don't already have a ssn,i've tried and i can't get past the part when they ask for the number.

don't call the 1-800 number use the local number that's listed on the letter they gave you.

This morning I called my local office once again to see if I could get the number over the phone, guess what, I still have not been issued a number after seven weeks.
See what i've been talking about!One minute they told you 8-10 days for the card to arrive(which to me would indicate that they sent it and it's in the mail),now they tell you that you haven't even been issued a number yet! Incompetent!!!
Guys,
I finally received the Social Security Card on Friday afternoon (10/19/07).
Remember I applied on 8/29/2007.
I feel free like a bird...
Congrats and welcome to the Tax Paying Community !
