my wife entered on a student visa and currently we're in the process of adjusting her status and filing i-130 concurrently.

at this point we've gotten confirmation that all forms have been received, received NOA1, she went to her biometrics appointment and yesterday she received her EAD.

i couldn't quite figure out at what point does she get a social security number?

is it something that is issued to her, as part of the process of becoming a permanent resident? or is the social security number something that she needs to apply for separately?

i'm a bit confused about this and would appreciate help. thanks!

She can take her EAD to the social security off and apply for a SSN, then she can apply for a drivers license once she receive a social security number. That way you can add her to your lease, bank accounts, utility bill..etc before the interview. That is if you haven't already done that or if you need more proof of bonafide marriage
