SSN Process in NYC

Hey everyone, 2 questions:

  1. Do I need proof of address to get my SSN in nyc? I’ve received conflicting information.
  2. If I have an appointment at an SSA “card center,” will they issue my SSN on the spot?

I called the SSA office and they scheduled an appointment for me at a “card center,” saying I should be able to get my SSN right away. However, I’ve heard mixed information about this. I also originally called to ask whether proof of address is required, but I keep getting different answers. Can anyone clarify please?
