USCIS has announced updates to the I-765 form, which will take effect on March 5, 2026. The new requirements clarify that applicants must now apply for their Social Security Number (SSN) independently, rather than receiving it automatically upon approval of their work authorization.
Key Details:
- New I-765 form effective date: March 5, 2026
- Applicants must request their SSN separately
- Changes apply to all future I-765 submissions
- Further guidance available via USCIS announcements
This update will impact many immigrants seeking work authorization, as they will need to navigate the separate SSN application process. Need help with your immigration case? Visit QuickFiling.us for professional immigration services.
