Hi,
I was initially on H4 Visa and later on I have got L1B Visa processed while in USA. With that I have started working and have also applied for SSN 2 months back. Till now I have not received my SSN, and the SSA office says that my visa status is still H4 in their database so they need it to be verified by INS before they can issue my SSN. SSA have already sent a request to INS for this but till now they have not received any updates.
Now, I have to go to India for some urgent work and at the same time I also have to appear for a personal appearance in US consulate in India for my L1B stamping. In that case do I need my SSN or I can go ahead and schedule an appointment for L1B stamping without having my SSN with me. Note I am already working in US. so will it not be a problem when I go for a personal appearance without SSN.
Please reply to me. I would appreciate any advice from any one.
Thanks in advance.
