You can apply for one before you get married. If you wait till after you get married, you'll need to wait for your EAD before you can get one.

Hi KULtoATL

thank you for reply so you mean to say that its easy to get before the marry is there any fees we have to pay where i submit the file and how many days after i get that

A SSN is free be it new or replacement. It's recommended to wait for 2 weeks after entry to apply for one to ensure that you're already on the SAVE system. Manual verification would cause delay. Some VJers have applied a few days after entry and it was fine though. Also, you'll receive your card within a week or so. Please read the guide I linked in my post above.

I applied for my SSN two weeks after I got married.

They wanted to see my Application for SSN, my passport and the visa,  a printed form if the I-94 and the original marriage certificate.

The SSN was in the mail 8 days after I applied for one.

I think it depends in what state you live. in NY you can marry w/o SSN, in NJ you need SSN before you marry.

 

we did everything what Becci391 said except we married after getting SSN
