Hi everybody...

My interview was last June 20th, I have my passport stamped, and I'm travelling to California this August 3rd, can I star working on that date, or I have to wait to the GC and Social Security arrive?

Thanks for your answer...

Regards

Mario

Hi Mario,

Since you got your passport stamped, you become a permanent resident the day you set your foot in the US. You don't need plastic GC to work. Nor will you need the social security card. Just show the stamp in your passport to prospective employers.

You need to wait until you receive your social security to work from social security administration. You can't work without valid social security even you are granted americal citizenship.
 
that is not true. A person can object to obtaining an SSN, and it would be a major hassle to live without one, but it does happen. The most difficult part is being able to pay taxes without SSN.

If the above quote on what I said is not true, show the person how to avoid SSN and show the difficult part how one can pay taxes without SSN.
