My husband and I decided to take the chance and apply for his SSN yesterday, the day after he arrived.
We went to the SS office in Richmond and presented his passport and the application. The woman entered his info into the computer and was able to pull up all of his entry info from the day before!
We were both amazed that it had all been updated in one day - we were expecting to have to come back in a few days or a week.
We left with the receipt for his application stating that he should receive the card in 2 weeks - hope it's accurate
