The approval of applications filed under Sec. 274a.12(c) of this part, except for Sec. 274a.12(c)(8), shall be within the discretion of the director or such other officer as the Commissioner may designate. Where economic necessity has been identified as a factor, the alien must provide information regarding his or her assets, income, and expenses in accordance with instructions on Form I-765.
(2) An initial Application for Employment Authorization (Form I-765) for asylum applicants under 274a.12(c)(8) of this part shall be filed in accordance with instructions on or attached to Form I-765 with the appropriate Service Center or with such other Service office as the Commissioner may designate. The applicant also must submit a copy of the underlying application for asylum or withholding of deportation, together with evidence that the application has been filed in accordance with Secs. 208.3 and 208.4 of this chapter. An application for an initial employment authorization or for a renewal of employment authorization filed in relation to a pending claim for asylum shall be adjudicated in accordance with Sec. 208.7 of this chapter. An application for renewal or replacement of employment authorization submitted in relation to a pending claim for asylum, as provided in Sec. 208.7 of this chapter, shall be filed, with fee or application for waiver of such fee, in accordance with the instructions on or attached to Form I-765 with the appropriate Service Center or with such other Service office as the Commissioner may designate.

Failure to complete the adjudication within 90 days will result in the grant of an employment authorization document for a period not to exceed 240 days. Such authorization shall be subject to any conditions noted on the employment authorization document. However, if the director adjudicates the application prior to the expiration date of the interim employment authorization and denies the individual's employment authorization application, the interim employment authorization granted under this section shall automatically terminate as of the date of the director's adjudication and denial.

Each benefit request must be properly completed and filed with all initial evidence required by applicable regulations and other USCIS instructions. Any evidence submitted in connection with a benefit request is incorporated into and considered part of the request.
(9) Appearance for interview or biometrics. USCIS may require any applicant, petitioner, sponsor, beneficiary, or individual filing a benefit request, or any group or class of such persons submitting requests, to appear for an interview and/or biometric collection. USCIS may require the payment of the biometric services fee in 8 CFR 103.7(b)(1)(i)(C) or that the individual obtain a fee waiver. Such appearance and fee may also be required by law, regulation, form instructions, or Federal Register notice applicable to the request type.

8 CFR 103.16
(16) Inspection of evidence. An applicant or petitioner shall be permitted to inspect the record of proceeding which constitutes the basis for the decision, except as provided in the following paragraphs.
(i) Derogatory information unknown to petitioner or applicant. If the decision will be adverse to the applicant or petitioner and is based on derogatory information considered by the Service and of which the applicant or petitioner is unaware, he/she shall be advised of this fact and offered an opportunity to rebut the information and present information in his/her own behalf before the decision is rendered, except as provided in paragraphs (b)(16)(ii), (iii), and (iv) of this section. Any explanation, rebuttal, or information presented by or in behalf of the applicant or petitioner shall be included in the record of proceeding.
(ii) Determination of statutory eligibility. A determination of statutory eligibility shall be based only on information contained in the record of proceeding which is disclosed to the applicant or petitioner, except as provided in paragraph (b)(16)(iv) of this section.
(iii) Discretionary determination. Where an application may be granted or denied in the exercise of discretion, the decision to exercise discretion favorably or unfavorably may be based in whole or in part on classified information not contained in the record and not made available to the applicant, provided the USCIS Director or his or her designee has determined that such information is relevant and is classified under Executive Order No. 12356 (47 FR 14874; April 6, 1982) as requiring protection from unauthorized disclosure in the interest of national security.
(iv) Classified information. An applicant or petitioner shall not be provided any information contained in the record or outside the record which is classified under Executive Order No. 12356 (47 FR 14874; April 6, 1982) as requiring protection from unauthorized disclosure in the interest of national security, unless the classifying authority has agreed in writing to such disclosure. Whenever he/she believes he/she can do so consistently with safeguarding both the information and its source, the USCIS Director or his or her designee should direct that the applicant or petitioner be given notice of the general nature of the information and an opportunity to offer opposing evidence. The USCIS Director's or his or her designee's authorization to use such classified information shall be made a part of the record. A decision based in whole or in part on such classified information shall state that the information is material to the decision.
8 CFR part 212 (82 FR 5238; January 17, 2017)
§ 212.19 Parole for entrepreneurs.
(a) Definitions. For purposes of this section, the following definitions apply:
(1) Entrepreneur means
an alien who possesses a substantial ownership interest in a start-up
entity and has a central and active role in the operations of that
entity, such that the alien is well-positioned, due to his or her
knowledge, skills, or experience, to substantially assist the entity
with the growth and success of its business. For purposes of this
section, an alien may be considered to possess a substantial
ownership interest if he or she possesses at least a 10 percent
ownership interest in the start-up entity at the time of adjudication
of the initial grant of parole and possesses at least a 5 percent
ownership interest in the start-up entity at the time of adjudication
of a subsequent period of re-parole. During the period of initial
parole, the entrepreneur may continue to reduce his or her ownership
interest in the start-up entity, but must, at all times during the
period of initial parole, maintain at least a 5 percent ownership
interest in the entity. During the period of re-parole, the
entrepreneur may continue to reduce his or her ownership interest in
the start-up entity, but must, at all times during the period of
parole, maintain an ownership interest in the entity.
(2) Start-up
entity means a U.S. business
entity that was recently formed, has lawfully done business during
any period of operation since its date of formation, and has
substantial potential for rapid growth and job creation. An entity
that is the basis for a request for parole under this section may be
considered recently formed if it was created within the 5 years
immediately preceding the filing date of the alien's initial parole
request. For purposes of paragraphs (a)(3) and (5) of this section,
an entity may be considered recently formed if it was created within
the 5 years immediately preceding the receipt of the relevant
grant(s), award(s), or investment(s).
(3) Qualified
government award or grant means
an award or grant for economic development, research and development,
or job creation (or other similar monetary award typically given to
start-up entities) made by a federal, state, or local government
entity (not including foreign government entities) that regularly
provides such awards or grants to start-up entities. This definition
excludes any contractual commitment for goods or services.
(4) Qualified
investment means an investment
made in good faith, and that is not an attempt to circumvent any
limitations imposed on investments under this section, of lawfully
derived capital in a start-up entity that is a purchase from such
entity of its equity, convertible debt, or other security convertible
into its equity commonly used in financing transactions within such
entity's industry. Such an investment shall not include an
investment, directly or indirectly, from the entrepreneur; the
parents, spouse, brother, sister, son, or daughter of such
entrepreneur; or any corporation, limited liability company,
partnership, or other entity in which such entrepreneur or the
parents, spouse, brother, sister, son, or daughter of such
entrepreneur directly or indirectly has any ownership interest.
(5) Qualified
investor means an individual
who is a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident of the United
States, or an organization that is located in the United States and
operates through a legal entity organized under the laws of the
United States or any state, that is majority owned and controlled,
directly and indirectly, by U.S. citizens or lawful permanent
residents of the United States, provided such individual or
organization regularly makes substantial investments in start-up
entities that subsequently exhibit substantial growth in terms of
revenue generation or job creation. The term “qualified
investor” shall not include an individual or organization that
has been permanently or temporarily enjoined from participating in
the offer or sale of a security or in the provision of services as an
investment adviser, broker, dealer, municipal securities dealer,
government securities broker, government securities dealer, bank,
transfer agent or credit rating agency, barred from association with
any entity involved in the offer or sale of securities or provision
of such services, or otherwise found to have participated in the
offer or sale of securities or provision of such services in
violation of law. For purposes of this section, such an individual or
organization may be considered a qualified investor if, during the
preceding 5 years:
(i) The individual or organization made
investments in start-up entities in exchange for equity, convertible
debt or other security convertible into equity commonly used in
financing transactions within their respective industries comprising
a total in such 5-year period of no less than $600,000; and
(ii) Subsequent to such investment by such
individual or organization, at least 2 such entities each created at
least 5 qualified jobs or generated at least $500,000 in revenue with
average annualized revenue growth of at least 20 percent.
(6) Qualified
job means full-time employment
located in the United States that has been filled for at least 1 year
by one or more qualifying employees.
(7) Qualifying
employee means a U.S. citizen,
a lawful permanent resident, or other immigrant lawfully authorized
to be employed in the United States, who is not an entrepreneur of
the relevant start-up entity or the parent, spouse, brother, sister,
son, or daughter of such an entrepreneur. This definition shall not
include independent contractors.
(8) Full-time
employment means paid
employment in a position that requires a minimum of 35 working hours
per week. This definition does not include combinations of part-time
positions even if, when combined, such positions meet the hourly
requirement per week.
(9) U.S.
business entity means any
corporation, limited liability company, partnership, or other entity
that is organized under federal law or the laws of any state, and
that conducts business in the United States, that is not an
investment vehicle primarily engaged in the offer, purchase, sale or
trading of securities, futures contracts, derivatives or similar
instruments.
(10) Material
change means any change in
facts that could reasonably affect the outcome of the determination
whether the entrepreneur provides, or continues to provide, a
significant public benefit to the United States. Such changes
include, but are not limited to, the following: Any criminal charge,
conviction, plea of no contest, or other judicial determination in a
criminal case concerning the entrepreneur or start-up entity; any
complaint, settlement, judgment, or other judicial or administrative
determination concerning the entrepreneur or start-up entity in a
legal or administrative proceeding brought by a government entity;
any settlement, judgment, or other legal determination concerning the
entrepreneur or start-up entity in a legal proceeding brought by a
private individual or organization other than proceedings primarily
involving claims for damages not exceeding 10 percent of the current
assets of the entrepreneur or start-up entity; a sale or other
disposition of all or substantially all of the start-up entity's
assets; the liquidation, dissolution or cessation of operations of
the start-up entity; the voluntary or involuntary filing of a
bankruptcy petition by or against the start-up entity; a significant
change with respect to ownership and control of the start-up entity;
and a cessation of the entrepreneur's qualifying ownership interest
in the start-up entity or the entrepreneur's central and active role
in the operations of that entity.

partially meets one or both of the criteria in paragraph
(b)(2)(ii)(B) of this section may alternatively meet the standard

reliable and compelling evidence of the start-up entity's substantial
potential for rapid growth and job creation.
(c) Additional
periods of parole—(1) Filing
of re-parole request form. Prior
to the expiration of the initial period of parole, an entrepreneur
parolee may request an additional period of parole based on the same
start-up entity that formed the basis for his or her initial period
of parole granted under this section. To request such parole, an
entrepreneur parolee must timely file the Application for
Entrepreneur Parole (Form I-941) with USCIS, with the required fees
(including biometric services fees), and supporting documentation in
accordance with the form instructions, demonstrating eligibility as
provided in paragraph (c)(2) of this section.
(2) Criteria
for consideration—(i) In

considered for re-parole under this section if the alien demonstrates
that a grant of parole will continue to provide a significant public

entrepreneur of a start-up entity.
(ii) General
criteria. An alien may meet the
standard described in paragraph (c)(2)(i) of this section by
providing a detailed description, along with supporting evidence:

reliable and compelling evidence of the start-up entity's substantial
potential for rapid growth and job creation.
(d) Discretionary
authority; decision; appeals and motions to reopen—
(1) Discretionary
authority. DHS may grant parole
under this section in its sole discretion on a case-by-case basis if
the Department determines, based on the totality of the evidence,
that an applicant's presence in the United States will provide a
significant public benefit and that he or she otherwise merits a
favorable exercise of discretion. In determining whether an alien's
presence in the United States will provide a significant public
benefit and whether the alien warrants a favorable exercise of
discretion, USCIS will consider and weigh all evidence, including any
derogatory evidence or information, such as but not limited to,
evidence of criminal activity or national security concerns.
(2) Initial
parole. DHS may grant an
initial period of parole based on the start-up entity listed in the
request for parole for a period of up to 30 months from the date the
individual is initially paroled into the United States. Approval by
USCIS of such a request must be obtained before the alien may appear
at a port of entry to be granted parole, in lieu of admission.
(3) Re-parole. DHS
may re-parole an entrepreneur for one additional period of up to 30
months from the date of the expiration of the initial parole period.
If the entrepreneur is in the United States at the time that USCIS
approves the request for re-parole, such approval shall be considered
a grant of re-parole. If the alien is outside the United States at
the time that USCIS approves the request for re-parole, the alien
must appear at a port of entry to be granted parole, in lieu of
admission.
(4) Appeals
and motions to reopen. There is
no appeal from a denial of parole under this section. USCIS will not
consider a motion to reopen or reconsider a denial of parole under
this section. On its own motion, USCIS may reopen or reconsider a
decision to deny the Application for Entrepreneur Parole (Form
I-941), in accordance with 8 CFR 103.5(a)(5).
(e) Payment
of biometric services fee and collection of biometric information. An
alien seeking parole or re-parole under this section will be required
to pay the biometric services fee as prescribed by 8 CFR
103.7(b)(1)(i)(C). An alien seeking an initial grant of parole will
be required to submit biometric information. An alien seeking
re-parole may be required to submit biometric information.
(f) Limitations. No
more than three entrepreneurs may be granted parole under this
section based on the same start-up entity. An alien shall not receive
more than one initial grant of entrepreneur parole or more than one
additional grant of entrepreneur re-parole based on the same start-up
entity, for a maximum period of parole of five years.
(g) Employment
authorization. An entrepreneur
who is paroled into the United States pursuant to this section is
authorized for employment with the start-up entity incident to the
conditions of his or her parole.
(h) Spouse
and children. (1) The
entrepreneur's spouse and children who are seeking parole as
derivatives of such entrepreneur must individually file an
Application for Travel Document (Form I-131). Such application must
also include evidence that the derivative has a qualifying
relationship to the entrepreneur and otherwise merits a grant of
parole in the exercise of discretion. A biometric services fee is
required to be filed with the application. Such spouse or child will
be required to appear for collection of biometrics in accordance with
the form instructions or upon request.
(2) The spouse and children of an entrepreneur
granted parole under this section may be granted parole under this
section for no longer than the period of parole granted to such
entrepreneur.
(3) The spouse of the entrepreneur parolee,
after being paroled into the United States, may be eligible for
employment authorization on the basis of parole under this section.
To request employment authorization, an eligible spouse paroled into
the United States must file an Application for Employment
Authorization (Form I-765), in accordance with 8 CFR 274a.13 and form
instructions. An Application for Employment Authorization must be
accompanied by documentary evidence establishing eligibility,
including evidence of the spousal relationship.
(4) Notwithstanding 8 CFR 274a.12(c)(11), a
child of the entrepreneur parolee may not be authorized for and may
not accept employment on the basis of parole under this section.
(i) Conditions
on parole. As a condition of
parole under this section, a parolee must maintain household income
that is greater than 400 percent of the federal poverty line for his
or her household size as defined by the Department of Health and
Human Services. USCIS may impose other such reasonable conditions in
its sole discretion with respect to any alien approved for parole
under this section, and it may request verification of the parolee's
compliance with any such condition at any time. Violation of any
condition of parole may lead to termination of the parole in
accordance with paragraph (k) of this section or denial of
re-parole.
(j) Reporting
of material changes. An alien
granted parole under this section must immediately report any
material change(s) to USCIS. If the entrepreneur will continue to be
employed by the start-up entity and maintain a qualifying ownership
interest in the start-up entity, the entrepreneur must submit a form
prescribed by USCIS, with any applicable fee (not including any
biometric fees), in accordance with the form instructions to notify
USCIS of the material change(s). The entrepreneur parolee must
immediately notify USCIS in writing if he or she will no longer be
employed by the start-up entity or ceases to possess a qualifying
ownership stake in the start-up entity.
(k) Termination
of parole—(1) In
general. DHS, in its
discretion, may terminate parole granted under this section at any
time and without prior notice or opportunity to respond if it
determines that the alien's continued parole in the United States no
longer provides a significant public benefit. Alternatively, DHS, in
its discretion, may provide the alien notice and an opportunity to
respond prior to terminating the alien's parole under this section.
(2) Automatic
termination. Parole granted
under this section will be automatically terminated without notice
upon the expiration of the time for which parole was authorized,
unless the alien timely files a non-frivolous application for
re-parole. Parole granted under this section may be automatically
terminated when USCIS receives written notice from the entrepreneur
parolee that he or she will no longer be employed by the start-up
entity or ceases to possess a qualifying ownership stake in the
start-up entity in accordance with paragraph (j) of this section.
Additionally, parole of the spouse or child of the entrepreneur will
be automatically terminated without notice if the parole of the
entrepreneur has been terminated. If parole is terminated, any
employment authorization based on that parole is automatically
revoked.
(3) Termination
on notice. USCIS may terminate
on notice or provide the entrepreneur or his or her spouse or
children, as applicable, written notice of its intent to terminate
parole if USCIS believes that:
(i) The facts or information contained in the
request for parole were not true and accurate;
(ii) The alien failed to timely file or
otherwise comply with the material change reporting requirements in
this section;
(iii) The entrepreneur parolee is no longer
employed in a central and active role by the start-up entity or
ceases to possess a qualifying ownership stake in the start-up
entity;
(iv) The alien otherwise violated the terms and
conditions of parole; or
(v) Parole was erroneously granted.
(4) Notice
and decision. A notice of
intent to terminate issued under this paragraph should generally
identify the grounds for termination of the parole and provide a
period of up to 30 days for the alien's written rebuttal. The alien
may submit additional evidence in support of his or her rebuttal,
when applicable, and USCIS will consider all relevant evidence
presented in deciding whether to terminate the alien's parole.
Failure to timely respond to a notice of intent to terminate will
result in termination of the parole. When a charging document is
served on the alien, the charging document will constitute written
notice of termination of parole (if parole has not already been
terminated), unless otherwise specified. Any further immigration and
removal actions will be conducted in accordance with the Act and this
chapter. The decision to terminate parole may not be appealed. USCIS
will not consider a motion to reopen or reconsider a decision to
terminate parole under this section. On its own motion, USCIS may
reopen or reconsider a decision to terminate.
(l) Increase of investment and revenue amount requirements. The investment and revenue amounts in this section will be automatically adjusted every 3 years by the Consumer Price Index and posted on the USCIS Web site at www.uscis.gov. Investment and revenue amounts adjusted under this paragraph will apply to all applications filed on or after the beginning of the fiscal year for which the adjustment is made.

20 CFR §§ 422.103-422.110
(a) General. The Social Security Administration (SSA) maintains a record of the earnings reported for each individual assigned a social security number. The individual's name and social security number identify the record so that the wages or self-employment income reported for or by the individual can be properly posted to the individual's record. Additional procedures concerning social security numbers may be found in Internal Revenue Service, Department of the Treasury regulation 26 CFR 31.6011(b)-2.
(b) Applying for a number—(1) Application. An individual needing a Social Security number may apply for one by completing a prescribed application and submitting the required evidence. An individual outside the United States (U.S.) may apply for a Social Security number card at the Department of Veterans Affairs Regional Office, Manila, Philippines, at any U.S. Foreign Service post, or at a U.S. military post outside the United States. (See §422.106 for special procedures for filing applications with other government agencies.) Additionally, a U.S. resident may apply for a Social Security number for a nonresident dependent when the number is necessary for U.S. tax purposes or some other valid reason, the evidence requirements of §422.107 are met, and we determine that a personal interview with the dependent is not required.
(2) Birth registration document. We may enter into an agreement with officials of a State, including, for this purpose, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and New York City, to establish, as part of the official birth registration process, a procedure to assist us in assigning Social Security numbers to newborn children. Where an agreement is in effect, a parent, as part of the official birth registration process, need not complete a prescribed application and may request that we assign a Social Security number to the newborn child.
(3) Immigration form. We may enter into an agreement with the Department of State (DOS) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to assist us by collecting enumeration data as part of the immigration process. Where an agreement is in effect, an alien need not complete a prescribed application and may request, through DOS or DHS, as part of the immigration process, that we assign a Social Security number and issue a Social Security number card to him or her. An alien will request the assignment of a Social Security number through this process in the manner provided by DOS and DHS.
(c) How numbers are assigned—(1) Application. If you complete a prescribed application, we will require you to furnish evidence, as necessary, to assist us in establishing your age, U.S. citizenship or alien status, true identity, and previously assigned Social Security number(s), if any. (See §422.107 for evidence requirements.) We may require you to undergo a personal interview before we assign a Social Security number. If you request evidence to show that you have filed a prescribed application for a Social Security number card, we may furnish you with a receipt or equivalent document. We will electronically screen the data from the prescribed application against our files. If we find that you have not been assigned a Social Security number previously, we will assign one to you and issue a Social Security number card. However, if we find that you have been assigned a Social Security number previously, we will issue a replacement Social Security number card.
(2) Request on birth registration document. Where a parent has requested a social security number for a newborn child as part of an official birth registration process described in paragraph (b)(2) of this section, the State vital statistics office will electronically transmit the request to SSA's central office in Baltimore, MD, along with the child's name, date and place of birth, sex, mother's maiden name, father's name (if shown on the birth registration), address of the mother, and birth certificate number. This birth registration information received by SSA from the State vital statistics office will be used to establish the age, identity, and U.S. citizenship of the newborn child. Using this information, SSA will assign a number to the child and send the social security number card to the child at the mother's address.
(3) Request on immigration document. Where an alien has requested a social security number as part of the immigration process described in paragraph (b)(3) of this section, Department of Homeland Security will electronically transmit to SSA's central office in Baltimore, MD, the data elements collected for immigration purposes, by both Department of Homeland Security and DOS, that SSA needs to assign the alien a social security number along with other data elements as agreed upon by SSA and DOS or Department of Homeland Security. The data elements received by SSA will be used to establish the age, identity, and lawful alien status or authority to work of the alien. Using this data, SSA will assign a social security number to the alien and send the social security number card to him/her at the address the alien provides to DOS or Department of Homeland Security (or to the sponsoring agency of a refugee, if no personal mailing address is available).
(d) Social security number cards. A person who is assigned a social security number will receive a social security number card from SSA within a reasonable time after the number has been assigned. (See §422.104 regarding the assignment of social security number cards to aliens.) Social security number cards are the property of SSA and must be returned upon request.
(e) Replacement of social security number card— (1) When we may issue you a replacement card. We may issue you a replacement Social Security number card, subject to the limitations in paragraph (e)(2) of this section. You must complete a prescribed application to receive a replacement Social Security number card. We follow the evidence requirements in §422.107 when we issue you a replacement Social Security number card.
(2) Limits on the number of replacement cards. There are limits on the number of replacement social security number cards we will issue to you. You may receive no more than three replacement social security number cards in a year and ten replacement social security number cards per lifetime. We may allow for reasonable exceptions to these limits on a case-by-case basis in compelling circumstances. We also will consider name changes (i.e., verified legal changes to the first name and/or surname) and changes in alien status which result in a necessary change to a restrictive legend on the SSN card (see paragraph (e)(3) of this section) to be compelling circumstances, and will not include either of these changes when determining the yearly or lifetime limits. We may grant an exception if you provide evidence establishing that you would experience significant hardship if the card were not issued. An example of significant hardship includes, but is not limited to, providing SSA with a referral letter from a governmental social services agency indicating that the social security number card must be shown in order to obtain benefits or services.
(3) Restrictive legend change defined. Based on a person's immigration status, a restrictive legend may appear on the face of an SSN card to indicate that work is either not authorized or that work may be performed only with Department of Homeland Security (DHS) authorization. This restrictive legend appears on the card above the individual's name and SSN. Individuals without work authorization in the U.S. receive SSN cards showing the restrictive legend, “Not Valid for Employment;” and SSN cards for those individuals who have temporary work authorization in the U.S. show the restrictive legend, “Valid For Work Only With DHS Authorization.” U.S. citizens and individuals who are permanent residents receive SSN cards without a restrictive legend. For the purpose of determining a change in restrictive legend, the individual must have a change in immigration status or citizenship which results in a change to or the removal of a restrictive legend when compared to the prior SSN card data. An SSN card request based upon a change in immigration status or citizenship which does not affect the restrictive legend will count toward the yearly and lifetime limits, as in the case of Permanent Resident Aliens who attain U.S. citizenship.
(a) Persons eligible for SSN assignment. We can assign you a social security number if you meet the evidence requirements in §422.107 and you are:
(1) A United States citizen; or
(2) An alien lawfully admitted to the United States for permanent residence or under other authority of law permitting you to work in the United States (§422.105 describes how we determine if a nonimmigrant alien is permitted to work in the United States); or
(3) An alien who cannot provide evidence of alien status showing lawful admission to the U.S., or an alien with evidence of lawful admission but without authority to work in the U.S., if the evidence described in §422.107(e) does not exist, but only for a valid nonwork reason. We consider you to have a valid nonwork reason if:
(i) You need a social security number to satisfy a Federal statute or regulation that requires you to have a social security number in order to receive a Federally-funded benefit to which you have otherwise established entitlement and you reside either in or outside the U.S.; or
(ii) You need a social security number to satisfy a State or local law that requires you to have a social security number in order to receive public assistance benefits to which you have otherwise established entitlement, and you are legally in the United States.
(b) Annotation for a nonwork purpose. If we assign you a social security number as an alien for a nonwork purpose, we will indicate in our records that you are not authorized to work. We will also mark your social security card with a legend such as “NOT VALID FOR EMPLOYMENT.” If earnings are reported to us on your number, we will inform the Department of Homeland Security of the reported earnings.
(a) General rule. Except as provided in paragraph (b) of this section, if you are a nonimmigrant alien, we will presume that you have permission to engage in employment if you present a Form I-94 issued by the Department of Homeland Security that reflects a classification permitting work. (See 8 CFR 274a.12 for Form I-94 classifications.) If you have not been issued a Form I-94, or if your Form I-94 does not reflect a classification permitting work, you must submit a current document authorized by the Department of Homeland Security that verifies authorization to work has been granted e.g., an employment authorization document, to enable SSA to issue an SSN card that is valid for work. (See 8 CFR 274a.12(c)(3).)
(b) Exception to presumption for foreign academic students in immigration classification F-1. If you are an F-1 student and do not have a separate DHS employment authorization document as described in paragraph (a) of this section and you are not authorized for curricular practical training (CPT) as shown on your Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS) Form I-20, Certificate of Eligibility for Nonimmigrant (F-1) Student Status, we will not presume you have authority to engage in employment without additional evidence. Before we will assign an SSN to you that is valid for work, you must give us proof (as explained in §422.107(e)(2)) that:
(1) You have authorization from your school to engage in employment, and
(2) You are engaging in, or have secured, employment.
(a) Agreements. In carrying out its responsibilities to assign social security numbers, SSA enters into agreements with the United States Attorney General, other Federal officials, and State and local welfare agencies. An example of these agreements is discussed in paragraph (b) of this section.
(b) States. SSA and a State may enter into an agreement that authorizes employees of a State or one of its subdivisions to accept social security number card applications from some individuals who apply for or are receiving welfare benefits under a State-administered Federal program. Under such an agreement, a State employee is also authorized to certify the application to show that he or she has reviewed the required evidence of the applicant's age, identity, and U.S. citizenship. The employee is also authorized to obtain evidence to assist SSA in determining whether the applicant has previously been assigned a number. The employee will then send the application to SSA which will issue a social security number card.
(a) General. To obtain an original Social Security number card, you must submit convincing evidence of your age, U.S. citizenship or alien status, and true identity, as described in paragraphs (b) through (e) of this section. If you apply for a replacement Social Security number card, you must submit convincing evidence of your true identity, as described in paragraph (c) of this section, and you may also be required to submit convincing evidence of your age and U.S. citizenship or alien status, as described in paragraphs (b), (d), and (e) of this section. If you apply for an original or replacement Social Security number card, you are also required to submit evidence to assist us in determining the existence and identity of any previously assigned Social Security number(s). We will not assign a Social Security number or issue an original or replacement card unless we determine that you meet all of the evidence requirements. We require an in-person interview if you are age 12 or older and are applying for an original Social Security number, unless you are an alien who requests a Social Security number as part of the immigration process described in §422.103(b)(3). We may require an in-person interview of other applicants. All paper or other tangible documents submitted as evidence must be originals or copies of the original documents certified by the custodians of the original records and are subject to verification. We may also verify your eligibility factors, as described in paragraphs (b) through (e) of this section, through other means, including but not limited to data matches or other agreements with government agencies or other entities that we determine can provide us with appropriate and secure verification of your eligibility factors.
(b) Evidence of age. An applicant for an original social security number is required to submit convincing evidence of age. An applicant for a replacement social security number card may also be required to submit evidence of age. Examples of the types of evidence which may be submitted are a birth certificate, a religious record showing age or date of birth, a hospital record of birth, or a passport. (See §404.716.)
(c) Evidence of identity. (1) If you apply for an original Social Security number or a replacement Social Security number card, you are required to submit convincing evidence of your identity. Evidence of identity may consist of a driver's license, identification card, school record, medical record, marriage record, passport, Department of Homeland Security document, or other similar evidence serving to identify you. The evidence must contain sufficient information to identify you, including your name and:
(i) Your age, date of birth, or parents' names; or
(ii) Your photograph or physical description.
(2) A birth record is not sufficient evidence to establish identity for these purposes.
(d) Evidence of U.S. citizenship. Generally, an applicant for an original or replacement social security number card may prove that he or she is a U.S. citizen by birth by submitting a birth certificate or other evidence, as described in paragraphs (b) and (c) of this section, that shows a U.S. place of birth. Where a foreign-born applicant claims U.S. citizenship, the applicant for a social security number or a replacement social security number card is required to present documentary evidence of U.S. citizenship. If required evidence is not available, a social security number card will not be issued until satisfactory evidence of U.S. citizenship is furnished. Any of the following is generally acceptable evidence of U.S. citizenship for a foreign-born applicant:
(1) Certificate of naturalization;
(2) Certificate of citizenship;
(3) U.S. passport;
(4) U.S. citizen identification card issued by the Department of Homeland Security;
(5) Consular report of birth (State Department form FS-240 or FS-545); or
(6) Other verification from the Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Department of State, or Federal or State court records confirming citizenship.
(e) Evidence of alien status—(1) General evidence rules. When a person who is not a U.S. citizen applies for an original social security number or a replacement social security number card, he or she is required to submit, as evidence of alien status, a current document issued by the Department of Homeland Security in accordance with that agency's regulations. The document must show that the applicant has been lawfully admitted to the United States, either for permanent residence or under authority of law permitting him or her to work in the United States, or that the applicant's alien status has changed so that it is lawful for him or her to work. If the applicant fails to submit such a document, a social security number card will not be issued. If the applicant submits an unexpired Department of Homeland Security document(s) which shows current authorization to work, a social security number will be assigned or verified and a card which can be used for work will be issued. If the authorization of the applicant to work is temporary or subject to termination by the Department of Homeland Security, the SSA records may be so annotated. If the document(s) does not provide authorization to work and the applicant wants a social security number for a work purpose, no social security number will be assigned. If the applicant requests the number for a nonwork purpose and provides evidence documenting that the number is needed for a valid nonwork purpose, the number may be assigned and the card issued will be annotated with a nonwork legend. The SSA record will be annotated to show that a number has been assigned and a card issued for a nonwork purpose. In that case, if earnings are later reported to SSA, the Department of Homeland Security will be notified of the report. SSA may also notify that agency if earnings are reported for a social security number that was valid for work when assigned but for which work authorization expired or was later terminated by the Department of Homeland Security SSA may also annotate the record with other remarks, if appropriate.
(2) Additional evidence rules for F-1 students—(i) Evidence from your designated school official. If you are an F-1 student and do not have a separate DHS employment authorization document as described in §422.105(a) and you are not authorized for curricular practical training (CPT) as shown on your SEVIS Form I-20, Certificate of Eligibility for Nonimmigrant (F-1) Student Status, you must give us documentation from your designated school official that you are authorized to engage in employment. You must submit your SEVIS Form I-20, Certificate of Eligibility for Nonimmigrant (F-1) Student Status. You must also submit documentation from your designated school official that includes:
(A) The nature of the employment you are or will be engaged in, and
(B) The identification of the employer for whom you are or will be working.
(ii) Evidence of your employment. You must also provide us with documentation that you are engaging in, or have secured, employment; e.g., a statement from your employer.
(f) Failure to submit evidence. If the applicant does not comply with a request for the required evidence or other information within a reasonable time, SSA may attempt another contact with the applicant. If there is still no response, a social security number card will not be issued.
(g) Inability to verify eligibility factors. We will not issue an original or replacement Social Security number card when you present invalid or expired documents or when we are unable to verify the required evidence through other means, as described in paragraph (a) of this section. Invalid documents are either forged documents that supposedly were issued by the custodian of the record, or properly issued documents that were improperly changed after they were issued. An expired document is one that was valid for only a limited time and that time has passed.
A person may be subject to criminal penalties for furnishing false information in connection with earnings records or for wrongful use or misrepresentation in connection with social security numbers, pursuant to section 208 of the Social Security Act and sections of title 18 U.S.C. (42 U.S.C. 408; 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 1546).
(a) Application. If you wish to change the name or other personal identifying information you previously submitted in connection with an application for a Social Security number card, you must complete a prescribed application, except as provided in paragraph (b) of this section. You must prove your identity, and you may be required to provide other evidence. (See §422.107 for evidence requirements.) You may complete a request for change in records in the manner we designate, including at any Social Security office, or, if you are outside the U.S., to the Department of Veterans Affairs Regional Office, Manila, Philippines, or to any U.S. Foreign Service post or U.S. military post. If your request is for a change of name on the card (that is, verified legal changes to the first name or surname, or both), we may issue you a replacement Social Security number card bearing the same number and the new name. We will grant an exception to the limitations specified in §422.103(e)(2) for replacement Social Security number cards representing a change in name or, if you are an alien, a change to a restrictive legend shown on the card. (See §422.103(e)(3) for the definition of a change to a restrictive legend.)
(b) Assisting in enumeration. We may enter into an agreement with officials of the Department of State and the Department of Homeland Security to assist us by collecting, as part of the immigration process, information to change the name or other personal identifying information you previously submitted in connection with an application or request for a social security number card. If your request is to change a name on the card (i.e., verified legal changes to the first name and/or surname) or to correct the restrictive legend on the card to reflect a change in alien status, we may issue you a replacement card bearing the same number and the new name or legend. We will grant an exception from the limitations specified in §422.103(e)(2) for replacement social security number cards representing a change of name or, if you are an alien, a change to a restrictive legend shown on the card. (See §422.103(e)(3) for the definition of a change to a restrictive legend.)
