  • the proper applicant completes and signs a paper Form SS-5 and submits the required evidence (including having the mandatory in-person interview, when required);

  • parents of newborns sign the birth registration form at the hospital to register their child's birth and they indicate on the form that they also want an SSN assigned to the child; or

  • SSA receives data transmitted by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) for aliens requesting enumeration through Enumeration at Entry (EAE) and Enumeration Beyond Entry.

  • The iSSNRC applicant has submitted their online application and received the iSSNRC system generated response “Your request has been received”.
