Getting the green card varies by which POE you go through. Some people get their green card within a week, others a few weeks, others even longer. Myself, it took 19 days.

For the SSN, it varies as well. But keep in mind, if it's been longer than 3 weeks after POE, and you've not gotten the SSN in the mail, it's time to go to a local SSA office to apply. This is what I had to do since I didn't receive anything after 3 weeks. After I applied, I got my SSN in the mail 10 days later.

My wife received her SS card 8 days after setting her foot for the first time on American soil in South San Francisco. She got the green card a day later.

You can apply for SSN after few days of your arrival..however I applied mine after my wedding (I preferred this way so can use my marreid name) and I received the SSN card after 4 days.

That's for K1 visa applicants. OP is IR-1/CR-1.
