If you have obtained an immigrant visa, what documents do you need to bring to apply for ssn?

First of all, you need to find a job in the school (the reason why you are in the school is that students with F- 1 visas can't work outside the school except in a few places approved by the Immigration Bureau). After you have a job, take the work certificate to the international student office of the school for consultation. Generally speaking, you need to apply for SSN at the local social security office, but sometimes SSN officials come to the school to help students. When handling SSN, you need to provide personal identity and age certificate, a copy of the admission ticket, a non-immigrant visa, a student's qualified identity certificate (provided by the school and approved by the Immigration Bureau), and an I-94 entry and exit card approved by the latest overseas student tracking system; In addition, foreign students with F- 1 visa must also provide full-time school education certificate and work permit certificate of immigration bureau to obtain SSN that can work legally.

This new regulation also explains the procedures for students to apply for a replacement SSN: for example, students' personal identification documents and proof that the applicant still holds a valid student visa (or identity) are required; These documents include I-20 ID card, I-94 white card that is still valid, attendance certificate of full-time students, full-time attendance certificate letter signed by school supervisor or full-time attendance report verified by school.
