Also for the Employment Authorization did you mean I-765?

You definitely want submit the I-765, otherwise you will not be able to work until your AOS is approved which can take months. You should also submit I-131 for AP in case anything comes up that would require you to travel. Both forms are completely free to file as part of your AOS application and you should apply for them. Also how were you able to get an SSN the next day, or do you mean that you applied for an SSN?

please tell me one thing my wife have no job for last 5 months, how can i show her income in i-864 affidavit of support form...and how can i submit my AOS fee.....

Do you mean AOS as in affidavit of support, or AOS as in adjustment of status? For the affidavit of support, you don't pay this fee because that is only for people who apply for a spouse visa abroad. For the adjustment of status, which is what you are doing, the fee is $1070 and it is paid by check or money order and is included when you send your adjustment of status package.

If your wife is unemployed and has no other income that will put her at 125% of the poverty level for her household size, she will need a joint sponsor. For a household of two she has to have income of at least $19,662, this is assuming it's only the two of you. If she has children, tax dependents, or if she has sponsored other immigrants in the past, they need to be included in the household size.

A joint sponsor can be anyone who is a USC, LPR, or US national. They do not need to live in the same state as you (they do have to live in the country) and they don't need to be related to either of you. They do have to make 125% of the poverty level for their household size and cannot combine their income with your wife.
