Lots of good info here, follow the links provided. One thing, most guides say to wait 14 days after POE then go to the SSN office to apply. We waited 8 days and went to our local office and my fiancee was in the database already. She was able to get her card in her maiden name right away.

Like others have said here, get your card early and it will make things like taxes, state ID, job hunting, banking etc MUCH easier.

After you marry changing the name on the card is a snap.

best wishes
