Hello every body / @ Nelsona

I am Canadian citizen. I am going to USA on TN status 2nd time. I have already SSN when I went to USA for 1st time on TN status.

My question is that:

Should I apply new SSN again after entering 2nd time ? Or will the same SSN work for me for 2nd time?

Best Regards
 
No. SSN (the number) stays with you for life. And there would be no reason to replace your Social Security card unless you lost it.
 
Should I apply for an SSN when my wife and kids come to the USA on TD for the first time? I heard that spouse and Kids can not apply SSN on TD. Is it true?
 
Ok....how can I put my kids in School without SSN? How can I file the tax online without an SSN?

SSN is not required to attend school or file tax returns. Anyone who doesn't have an SSN, and isn't eligible for an SSN, and wants to file a US tax return files with an ITIN (applying for an ITIN together with the tax return if they do not already have an ITIN).

Ok i got my TN status at Calgary airport. Will my family pass the same process at calgary airpprt what i did. If yes then what kind of papers I need to give them to show officer to get their TD status. In TD status , will they get stamp on passport and I 94 like me. Can u please more for TD. Actually my family ll join me in the USA in July.
 
If they are Canadian citizens, they do not need visas, and just need to go to the airport with their Canadian passport a copy of your TN I-94, and seek to be admitted into TD status.

If they are not Canadian citizens, they will need to go to a US consulate to apply for TD visas.
 
....and the proof of relationship for TD status (e.g. Marriage certificate for spouse and birth certificate for kids)
 
In the US, your Social Security Number (SSN) is kind of like a permanent ID. You usually only apply for one in your entire life. It sticks with you forever, no matter how many times you use it or what forms you fill out.

However, life throws curveballs sometimes. Maybe you get married and change your name, or worse, your SSN gets stolen (yikes!). In those cases, you might need to apply for a new SSN or update your existing one.

Feeling lost in SSN land?

The Social Security Administration (SSA) is there to help! They can give you personalized advice based on your situation and make sure you're following the right steps.

May be this information is helpful for you.
 
SSN is permanent. Dont need to reapply. I was in the same boat last year and I called SSN office locally and they confirmed it.
