[solange_arg 3]

Hello everyone, we are about to be married and so im trying to start filling out all the forms for AOS..I have two questions,one is..is my fiance able to get ssn now before aos? (i see that theres a field requiring ssn number) and the other one is can he get a drivers licence in CA with the k1 visa? I know I will have many more questions as I get further into it so thank you so much for continuing to be of great help during this whole process!

Yes you can get ssn, not sure about driving license

A K-1 is entitled to a SSN as long as there is 14 days left on their I-94.

If you missed the window, you can put "none" in the SSN box on the I-485. You will have a chance to get one later.

For a driving license, it depends on the state, but he will probably not be able to drive until he get his EAD. Check the laws of your state.

Yes to the SSN. It says to wait about 10 business days after arriving in the US to get the SSN.

I'm in SC and even though it took me three visits to the DMV, I did get my drivers license before receiving my EAD or GC. They were just being difficult....surprise surprise at the DMV

As Harpa mentioned, driver license requirements vary from state to state. Here is a link to CA DMV: http://www.dmv.ca.gov/dl/dl.htm

Good luck on your immigration journey.
