Gregory Holmes, district manager for Social SecurityQ. How do I change my citizenship status on Social Security’s records?
A. To change your citizenship status shown in Social Security records:
• Complete an application for a Social Security card (Form SS-5), which you can find online at www.socialsecurity.gov/online/ss-5.html
• Provide documents proving your age, identity and new or revised citizenship status (We can only accept certain documents as proof of citizenship. These include your U.S. passport, a Certificate of Naturalization, or a Certificate of Citizenship. If you are not a U.S. citizen, Social Security will ask to see your current immigration documents);
• Take (or mail) your completed application and documents to your local Social Security office.
