Since January 2026, USCIS will no longer allow applicants to request a Social Security Number at the same time they file an EAD application (Form I-765). Previously, many applicants could simply check a box on their EAD form and have USCIS coordinate with the Social Security Administration (SSA) to issue an SSN or replacement card.

Under the updated policy, that convenience is ending. If you need an SSN, you will have to apply directly with SSA after your EAD is approved).
