SSN for 16yr old daughter
Hi,
I have recently relocated to Rochester in upstate NY and have now been here a whole 3 weeks! My husband has a SSN and mine will arrive in 2 weeks (although, so far, the USPS has been just as reliable as the good old Royal Mail :unsure:) My 16yr old daughter, who has had to return to school :p, would like to be able to find a PT job either after school or during the holidays etc. Does she need to obtain a SSN for this? Will I have to endure the high level security and the endless wait in the SS Office again???:ohmy::ohmy::ohmy: Thanks |

What visa does the daughter have, or what is her status in the USA?

She has an L-2 visa and is a dependant of an intracompany (?) transferee |

So, Is she unable to get a PT job at all? |

No - not without an EAD. And an L2 dependent child is not eligible for an EAD. However, you are eligible to apply for an EAD as the L2 spouse.

Yes, my EAD application is in but she wanted to do something throughout the holidays, she is going to be disappointed :(

Re: SSN for 16yr old daughter
Will her circumstances change when she turns 18? I am unsure how she would supplement any allowance when she goes off to college.
I'm dreading telling her the bad news :( |

You will need a TIN (tax identification number) of some sort for her when you do your taxes. Since she is ineligible for an SSN, you will need to apply for an ITIN. You apply for an ITIN by filing a W7 form with your US tax return.

Thanks :) we are in the process of applying for the ITIN but will she still be unable to do any unpaid work once this comes through?
