If you are a green-card holder fileing an I-130 petition, this falls into the limited class of immigrations as second preferences, (F2) it can take several years to get a visa number for a spouse of a LPR. Once you obtain citizenship the preference can be upgraded to unlimited class.

A person entering the country as an immigrant has green-card as soon as they enter the country, and can either request SSN on the DS-230 or can apply for SSN a few weeks after entering the country on the immigrant visa.

Spouses of US citizens usually wait 6-12 months (but may take longer), while spouses of permanent residents may have to wait years.

On the USCIS website, California Service Center is processing I-130 applications for spouses of permanent residents filed Jan. 1, 2005.

Yes and when they do get around to processing the petition gets sent to NVC where it will wait for a visa number to be alloted to the case, this also takes years for F2 class immigrants.
