Does GC mean new SS (without condition)?
I'm very excited. I received my 2 year GC a week ago. This means I don't need to use my EAD as work authorization, correct? Does this also mean that I can now apply for a new social security card? You know, one without the "need authorization to work" condition. If so, how do I go about getting it.
This forum has been of tremendious help to me, I would've been lost in the maize, that is the INS, were it not for your help.

You can have the restriction removed on your SS card by visiting your local SSA office and showing them your green card. They will reissue your SS card without the restriction. It usually takes a few weeks to get the new card.

My dad, who will be 90 on October 16th, has his original social security card. I forgot what year it was that SS was enacted but I would wager that the card is over 70 years old.

Mine is 40 years old. I remember getting it the year the Astrodome opened and what a wonder it was that the Houston Astros played there. Now its a relic and they play in ??? [it used to be Enron Field -- but I think they gave up the naming rights]. BTW, what were the Astros called before they became the Astros?

"Houston's original entry in the National League was named the Colt .45s, honoring the gun that tamed the West. The team became the Astros as part of the city's move into the Space Age--and into its Space Age arena."
