Social Security no for F1 holders...
Hi...
My question is, How long does it take to get a SS no. for an F1 holder after his first arrival ? Months/weeks/days ?
Thanks...

A related question:
It looks like some DMVs require a Social Security card to issue a Driver's License. If so, what about a F1 student who chooses not to get a SSN because he does not want/need to work on campus? Can he not drive in the US ?

If DMV requires it, the only people that are exempt from that requirement are people who are not eligible for a SSN. They would be excused.

The social security office will not issue you a SSN for the sole purpose of obtaining a drivers license.
