Permit the Department of State (DOS) and the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) To Collect Information Needed To Assign Social Security Numbers (SSNs) to Aliens

We describe how DOS and INS will provide us with information, collected as part of the immigration process, to enable us to assign SSNs and issue SSN cards to lawfully admitted aliens. We also are: amending the rule on the presumption of authority of a nonimmigrant alien to accept employment to include circumstances where a Form I-94, ``Arrival-Departure Record,'' has not been issued by INS; removing outdated rules on school and alien legalization enumeration; removing outdated rules on the application for a nonwork SSN; and, specifically acknowledging the requirement to complete a Form SS-5, ``Application For A Social Security Card,'' to obtain a duplicate SSN card.
