You can get SSN even if you dont have your AOS yet.

Possibly. A K-1 can get an SSN without a green card or EAD only if they have a valid I-94 with a certain number of days left on it. After that cut off point, you'll need an EAD to get a social security number.

I can't recall for certain but I think you need at least two weeks left on the I-94 (i.e. on/before your 75th day in the country) or the SSA won't issue one.

what are the possible requirements that they may asked from me in getting a SSN? and On the application form for SSCard should I check the box saying "Legal Alien allowed to work" since I am not US Citizen.

Just bring ur passport and your marriage contract.The SSn they will give you is not authorizing you to work unless u have ur EAD or green card. But after you get your GC you can go back to their office and have your permanent SSN . You dont need EAD once you are issued a GC.Check on their website you can find the info.

It will be on the Visa - and on the NOA2/Approval document as well as several other places.
