Your social security card will arrive at your mailing address about three weeks after you arrive in the US. If you apply for the Social Security number outside of the US, you do not have to visit an American Social Security office after entry into the United States.
If your Social Security card is lost, damaged or stolen, or your information has changed, such as due to marriage or divorce, you can order a replacement card from the U.S. Social Security Administration. You are limited to three in one year and 10 in a lifetime. You must simply complete Form SS-5, Application for a Security Card, and return it in person or by mail to your nearest Social Security office. You can't file the application online. Your new card is free and will arrive seven to 14 days from the date you submit your application to the SSA.
