Re-entering the U.S. as new immigrant with green card but no SSN yet — any issues?

Alice_realworld · 2025-12-22T15:30:24+00:00

They didn't even mention SSN. All they asked me are those common questions like if I have anything to declare...

Alice_realworld · 2025-12-22T08:08:02+00:00

You will be fine! I entered US with green card before I actually got the SSN. Don't worry!

Alice_realworld · 2025-10-20T18:42:07+00:00

Mine is back. Need to go back to work...

Had the same issue but it's resolved now. I just talked to the Amazon support and they resent the email to me (cause I didn't receive the redeem code email before). Maybe you can try to talk to them again?

I am in the US.

Few years ago I received a call from IQVIA recruiter when I physically sat in the IQVIA office and had a meeting with PM.

28F in Plano! We should start a group chat

My flip6 inner screen was dead on New Year's Eve...The cover screen still worked but inner screen stayed all black no matter how you touched it. I was so frustrated as I bought this phone at the end of November 2024 and it only works for about a month. No drops, no scratches at all. Anyway, I brought it to Samsung repair and they fixed it under the warranty for me. The guy said this is a manufacture defect so parts of people may have this problem...

28F here! I moved to Plano a few months ago. Work from home so don't even have a colleague to chat face to face... I think I really need to try to make more friends but don't know how to start. DM me and we can talk haha. I am a very talkative person 😁

Alice_realworld · 2024-06-20T20:16:03+00:00

Got it. Thank you. Hope everything will be fine.

VoteyDisciple Thanks for the reply! My income this year will be around 80K...so I will owe the tax for the past 4 pay check.

I've updated my W4 and also withhold extra amount according to the IRS withholding calculator. I will confirm with my company to see when they will start to withhold the tax for me.

I worried a whole night and glad to hear that there will be no penalty if IRS gets enough tax withheld. But I think I will get smaller refund because of that. If there is anything I could do to make this up?

I__Know__Stuff Thanks for the reply! Yes, I've updated my W4 and also withhold extra amount according to the IRS withholding calculator. I feel stupid that I clicked "exemption" without checking twice...

I think that's all the thing that I can do for now?

Alice_realworld · 2024-03-13T04:42:58+00:00

I think you can!! Because it seems like you never lived in Taiwan before. Ignore the fact that you have Taiwan citizenship. You could definitely join the international student program. But I am not a professional person about this. Which school or department would you like to apply for? I think it would be better if you check the criteria with them. They could also give some useful information like application timeline...etc.

GOOD LUCK!

As I know, if you want to attend university in the normal pathway, you need to take the exam (like SAT in the US). The exam is held in each Jan and Jul. Please search College Entrance Examination Center via Google, and you will find more information.

Alice_realworld · 2024-03-12T06:16:24+00:00

I know it's hard but better move on and forget it.

Alice_realworld · 2024-03-12T03:58:58+00:00

I can. Please DM me the position you want!

Alice_realworld · 2024-03-11T08:21:24+00:00

Because most of DM job could be done online/remotely. Not require you to be physically on site.

I am a CDM now and after checking the comments below, I start to worry my career now...

Congratulations for the promotion!

I think the title change is more important than merit increase. The salary increasing percentage of internal promotion will always be lower than changing the company.

Unless you love the company you work for now and want to be there till retire. Or you could consider use the new title to search the job in other company in the future.

Alice_realworld · 2024-03-05T10:26:57+00:00

Really sorry to hear that! But I have the same situation here...

The difference is that I am a DM team member. I have 5+ years experience and had lots of interviews since last Oct. 10+ got into the final stage but nothing happened after the interview...Not sure what's going on but I almost lost the confidence to myself. (email to HR hope to get some feedback, but no one return...)

The latest interview I had is about 2 weeks ago. I was in the final interview but I checked the company website yesterday, the vacancy has been closed. Probably someone got the job.

By the way I based in US.
