In October 2017, the Trump administration, in collaboration with the Social Security Administration (SSA), launched the Enumeration Beyond Entry (EBE) program. This initiative allows foreign nationals to request Social Security numbers (SSNs) directly on key immigration forms, including I-765, I-485, and N-400, streamlining the process and eliminating the need for in-person visits.
Key Details:
- Program Launch: October 2017
- Forms Affected: I-765 (Application for Employment Authorization), I-485 (Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status), N-400 (Application for Naturalization)
- Objective: To simplify SSN requests for foreign nationals
- Impact: Reduces bureaucratic hurdles for immigrants seeking Social Security numbers
This program significantly eases the process for foreign nationals, allowing them to obtain necessary identification without additional visits to SSA offices. Need help with your immigration case? Visit QuickFiling.us for professional immigration services.
