  17. Waiting for SSN

    in AOS & Immigration Challenges

    Posted

    So Christine just called to tell me that a letter from the SSA just came in the mail today. It was a recieipt letter saying that our application had been received and we should be getting the card within two weeks. I figured she'd be happy. But no, she could only say "Why they no send me the card?" Sigh...

     

    It sounds like more or less aduplicate of the receipt letter we got on the day we applied. Why would they send us this letter? Did anyone else get this letter? Seems like I remember others saying they just got the card,not a receipt letter.

     

    I'm guessing that if we go to the SSA office they can at least tell us what the number is?

    Hey Dave,

    just saw this post. We also got the duplicate letter, which I thought was strange, but ended up getting the SS card a couple of weeks after that.

    Have you received your card yet?

  20. Seeking Rice Cooker

    We have a Zojirushi NS-JCC18 Neuro Fuzzy 10-Cup Rice Cooker & Warmer, they arent cheap but I can tell u that we have had this one for the 5 years Lusheng and the twins have been here and it is still working just like the 1st day we purchased it, I think we paid around 125.00 for it so it has cost around 25 a year into 365, what is that 7 cents a day :whistling: And I can tell u it gets used everyday...

    What Mike said about the Zojirushi.........

     

    Actually more reasonably priced than Jim Julian's

  21. Ugly American clothes

    Lily has a degree in fashion design. Unfortunately, she hasn't found any clothing she likes here in Knoxville. Fortunately we brought, in my opinion....but could be, and probably am, wrong, a lifetime's supply of her new and used clothing in 6 large suitcases plus we shipped 500 pounds of household furnishings, new and used clothing, multiple handbags and shoes on a slow boat.

     

    I take son to Goody's..................no problems :lol:

    sorry i don't have the pinyin or english translation...ask your SO <_<

    Thanks for this song. Lily's suffering from Jet Lag and sadness since she returned from her mom's funeral in China. I just played this as a wake up call, and saw her usual bright eyes and smile for the first time since she arrived home day before yesterday.

  23. Received SS Cards

    in AOS & Immigration Challenges

    Posted

    We applied in person for wife and son's SS card on November 6 and received them in the mail on Nov. 19. They are consecutive numbers.

     

     

     

    As a K-3 you used your married name what about the first name??

     

    Change it or stick with her Chinese name????? B)

    We had her married name added at AOS interview for GC. Stuck with her chinese first name. Used her chinese family name as her "new" Middle name.

    Dave,

    I'm at work and don't have my copies here, but to answer the C/O question:

     

    C/O = care of

    c/o Illinois Dave

    Plainfield IL

    Thanks Hank.

    So do I put my name and address in that "Address - C/O" box and then the same address in the remaining boxes? Seems redundent.

    No, just "Illinois Dave" in the C/O box....or like Dan says, you could put "none".

    Depends on your postman..........Here in Knoxville, they'll deliver with anyone's name in the address, but when I lived in Colorado, they would only deliver if my last name was listed on the address...........Guess that's why USCIS includes the C/O box.
