Newly arrived international students and scholars in F-1 or J-1 visa status being paid by the university (e.g. compensation, taxable scholarship, fellowship, prize or award) are advised to apply for a SSN soon as possible. The processing takes 3-4 weeks but you should only need to do it once.
If you are in F-1 status and do not have lawful F-1 employment, you are ineligible to apply for a SSN. This includes applications for replacement SSN cards. J-1 students are required to show evidence of employment and must be in valid J-1 status and be registered for a full course of study.
In general, only noncitizens who have DHS permission to work can apply for a Social Security number. We suggest you wait 48 hours after reporting to your school before you apply for a Social Security number. This waiting will help ensure we can verify your immigration status with the DHS.
