Hiring non-resident aliens

If the new employee does not have a Social Security number, they must apply for one at the Social Security Administration.

To obtain a Social Security card, the new employee should reference specific information about how to request an SSN based on their immigration status.  This information can be found at:  https://nau.edu/isss/.  If they have questions, they can be directed to isss@nau.edu or internationalemployee@nau.edu.

Once they have all documents, and are ready to submit their application for an SSN, the new employee will go in-person to:

Social Security Office
2715 W. Woodlands Blvd.
Flagstaff, AZ 86001

• passport
• visa stamp
• I-94 form
• Social Security card or Social Security receipt
• The appropriate Work Authorization Documents listed below
