To get the form to apply for a SSN for your husband. Most likely he will need to get his SSN before he can get a Drivers License, however I am not familar with the rules in Virginia, so you should look them up on the website for the Virginia DMV:

I'm in Virginia also and have been looking into requirements for getting a driver's license for my husband. (My, my have things changed since I was a teenager and got my first driver's license!) According to DMV guidance, to obtain a driver's permit/license, you must show "proof of your complete social security number (if you have been issued one)". The guidance explicitly states that you must have a social security number for a commercial driver's license, but it seems that it is not needed for a general driver's license. Here's the reference:
