When i talked to the person in charge of human resources she told me that i dont need to wait to get my social security and work permit thing. All i need is this number that USCIS sends. So i went back to my lawyer and asked what she was talking about. So it turns out that its called the "A" number. Today i recieved my Letter of notice that they have recieved my payment. Along with it they said that the "A" number i needed is there. It is the USCIS ALIEN NUMBER. So my question is does anybody know if this is the number i need so i can potentially get hired. The lady from human resources said this is all i need so she can run it through the E-verify system and see if my case shows up or something.. and if so, i can immediately get hired, while my other paper work comes through. Anybody know about this? thanks
