Please PM me!You should NOT apply for SSN until after you have been in US on TN visa for 10 to 15 business days. Otherwise, it will delay the process. I am being transferred to Boston by my company (will leave Toronto on Sep 23), and that the relocation fellows told me. Since you are also going to Boston, maybe we can PM to exchange contact info?

Plumblooms, I have a quick question:Have you done the TN application process through an immigration lawyer's assistance? The US government needs to be informed by your employer that you are going to apply for TN status, before you see the officer at the border, right?

No, the US government never knows you are going to apply TN. Check the history posts. Most guys DIY the TN. That's so easy.

Steve888, I saw that the lawyer wrote on their tracker website that they had filed my TN case with the govt. Are they stupid? or because they applied H1-B for me in July?

You need SSN to get paid. So apply SSN as soon as possible after you have a permanent living address.You won't get the number when you apply it. You can go to the office again after 48 hours to get the number. After getting the number, you can open a bank account and ask your employer to deposit your pay into it. The SSN card will be mailed to you in about 4 weeks.
It's not necessary to change driver license imediately. I think you need your SSN card to change driver license. So at least you need to wait 4 weeks.
