I am English and living in Wisconsin at the moment. I go back to the UK in 3 weeks to collect my VISA to come back here permanently. When I arrive I will have a UK driving licence and it will take me perhaps a month to get a social security number. I want to buy a car for cash and insure it. Will there be a problem obtaining car insurance if I am driving on a uk licence (its legal to drive here on that for 12 months) and do not yet have a social security number ?

You are able to drive with the UK license for 12 months, however if you become an owner of a car in the United State you would be subject to your states motor vehicle laws. The car must be registered for your state and insured with Wisconsin insurance. With most companies you will have to obtain a Wisconsin license within a certain period of time, most of the time 30 days. Some states require a social security number to get a license. These laws are rapidly changing with much debate about the National Drivers License with ID Tracking Chips. As far as social security number, most company won't need this unless they rate on credit, but even then they are not allowed to require you to use a Social Security number.
