This. My insurance required the SSN within a month; I thought it would take far longer and was prepared to go to the SS office. Nope, I saw a photo of it in my informed delivery email on the morning I planned to make the trek.

We waited for 4 months for a newly arrived nanny. There's a number we kept calling until it finally came.

It’s only been 4 days. Give it at least 2 weeks.

It was about two weeks for us, too. Submitted the form at GW last month and it came the same day as her two week pediatrician appointment.

It took about a month to get ours. We filled out all the health insurance forms and submitted then without an SSN, and just gave the SSN to insurance directly once we had it.

Just go online to the social security office and reapply just incase - they have a form to download and mail in. Usually a few weeks.

Hi! We submitted our SSN request at the hospital on April 18th, in DC at MedStar WHC. Does anyone know how long it takes to get a SSN? I need one to add DD2 to our insurance. Thank you!
