An SSN is for people authorized to work and is used for employment, taxes, and services. An ITIN is issued by the IRS for tax purposes to people who must file taxes but are not eligible for an SSN.<\/p>\n<p>If you are not work-authorized but need to handle taxes, an ITIN may apply. But an ITIN does not authorize work or provide the benefits of an SSN. Once you become eligible for an SSN, you generally use it instead.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"attorney\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"When_to_Work_With_an_Immigration_Attorney\"><\/span>When to Work With an Immigration Attorney<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Getting an SSN is usually simple once you have status, but timing and eligibility can raise questions. Legal help is valuable when you are unsure whether your status allows an SSN, when work authorization is delayed and affects a job, when you need to coordinate the SSN with your immigration process, or when you are deciding between an SSN and an ITIN. An attorney can align these steps with your case. Outcomes depend on the facts of each case.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"faq\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently_Asked_Questions\"><\/span>\u0627\u0644\u0623\u0633\u0626\u0644\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u0634\u0627\u0626\u0639\u0629<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_do_I_get_a_Social_Security_number\"><\/span>How do I get a Social Security number?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>You get one from the Social Security Administration, generally if you are authorized to work, such as a green card holder or someone with work authorization. New immigrants can often request an SSN as part of their immigrant visa or green card process. Otherwise, you apply with Form SS-5 and proof of your identity, immigration status, and work authorization, and the SSA mails your Social Security card.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Do_I_need_work_authorization_to_get_an_SSN\"><\/span>Do I need work authorization to get an SSN?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Generally yes. A standard Social Security number is available to people authorized to work in the U.S., including permanent residents and others with valid work authorization. If you are not work-authorized, you usually cannot get one, apart from limited exceptions for non-work purposes required by law. For most people, having work authorization is the key requirement to obtain a Social Security number.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_I_get_an_SSN_when_I_get_my_green_card\"><\/span>Can I get an SSN when I get my green card?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Often yes. If you immigrate through an immigrant visa or obtain a green card, you can usually request a Social Security number as part of that process, so it is issued without a separate trip to the SSA. When applying for the immigrant visa, you may indicate that you want an SSN, and many new permanent residents receive their number shortly after arriving.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_documents_do_I_need_to_apply_for_an_SSN\"><\/span>What documents do I need to apply for an SSN?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>You generally need to prove your identity, your immigration status, and your work authorization. Common documents include your passport, your green card or work permit, and immigration documents showing your status. Requirements can vary, so check the Social Security Administration&#8217;s current guidance for your situation. Providing the correct documents the first time helps you avoid delays in receiving your number and card.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_the_difference_between_an_SSN_and_an_ITIN\"><\/span>What is the difference between an SSN and an ITIN?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A Social Security number is for people authorized to work and is used for employment, taxes, and services. An Individual Taxpayer Identification Number, or ITIN, is issued by the IRS for tax purposes to people who must file taxes but are not eligible for an SSN. An ITIN does not authorize work or provide SSN benefits. Once eligible for an SSN, you generally use it instead of an ITIN.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_long_does_it_take_to_get_a_Social_Security_number\"><\/span>How long does it take to get a Social Security number?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>After you apply with the right documents, the SSA processes the request and mails your card, which typically takes a couple of weeks, though times vary. If you requested the SSN through your immigrant visa process, it may arrive shortly after you become a permanent resident. Applying promptly once you have work authorization helps if a job is waiting on the number.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_I_work_before_I_get_my_Social_Security_number\"><\/span>Can I work before I get my Social Security number?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Your authorization to work comes from your status or work permit, not the SSN itself, so in some situations you may be able to start work while the number is pending, if your employer allows it and the law permits. The SSN is needed for tax reporting. Confirm with your employer and check the rules, since practices vary, and you must have valid work authorization regardless.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Do_I_need_to_reapply_for_an_SSN_if_my_status_changes\"><\/span>Do I need to reapply for an SSN if my status changes?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>You keep the same Social Security number for life; it does not change with your status. However, if your work authorization status changes, you may need to update your records with the SSA, for example to replace a card that had a work restriction once you become authorized. The number stays the same, but the associated information may need updating as your status evolves.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"conclusion\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bottom_Line\"><\/span>\u062e\u0644\u0627\u0635\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u0642\u0648\u0644<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You get a Social Security number from the SSA, generally if you are authorized to work. New immigrants can often request it through their visa or green card process, while others apply with Form SS-5 and proof of identity, status, and work authorization. An ITIN is a separate, tax-only number for those not eligible for an SSN.
