Q: How can I get a SSN for my sons living in China?

As many of you know, I have 2 sons that were born in China about 4 years ago.  They already have their US passport and I would like to get them a Social Security Number (SSN) as well.  Does anyone know how to do this in China?

Are they only US citizens, Chinese don't like having duals, so be careful when you apply as you may loose Chinese benefits.

Go to the US Consulate in Guangzhou, and request to talk to the Chinese lady in charge of SS affairs.  She will give you the proper paperwork and get you the numbers done.

If I recall right, her name is Julia Yao.

A:I'll give my two cents on the age part. It's not as easy but can definitely be done. I was 21, fresh out of university and landed my first teaching job in china as a homeroom kindergarten teacher on a pretty standard 20,000/month salary. I'm 1 year in now and am still happy. Pretty much all international kindergarten jobs on here want 2 years experience, but many will still accept if you have experience in your home country. With that being said, being white and having a nice looking face is much more of a decision factor in china vs the west, if you can- use it to your advantage. Good luck finding something! -- brinsleym
