Take EAD card, Passport, and marriage cert, to SSA office and apply for SSN.

Note as K-1 you could have gotten the SSA within 76 days of entering the USA on the visa.

They (USCIS) won't send you a card - you simply need to apply for one. Check here for some tips.

Yup go to the their office and apply for one. You need to get one and you don't need to wait for your greencard to be able to get SSN. You need to apply yourself.

If you're already married bring a copy of your marriage certificate and ID. Bring also original marriage certificate in case they might check it.

If not you'll have Social Security card on your maiden name and you can change it later.

You can't work legally without an SSN, unless you are paid in cash and that's illegal, also. Your phone book will contain the phone number of your nearest U.S. Social Security Administration office. Once you get the address, go there on a weekday and wait to be served. They don't take appointments--first come, first served. Once you've completed registering (bring the legal documents that other suggest) it will take about 10 days for the actual card to be mailed to you.

Immigration (USCIS) has nothing to do with the SSA. They are completely independent of each other.

It is easier to download their form and fill it out ahead of time, we ended up scrapping 3 forms before I stopped making mistakes on the thing.
