Social security number refers to the nine-digit number generally assigned to US citizens, permanent residents, and temporary (working) residents. This could include international students temporarily in the United States while attending a college, language, vocational, or nonacademic school with a nonimmigrant F-1, M-1, or J-1 student classification.
The numbers are used by employers to report the wages you earn to the government. This will determine whether you are eligible for Social Security benefits.
