SSN is required for marriage for anyone who has one under a federal law passed in the late 90s/early 00s aimed at cracking down on deadbeat dads.

So how do K-1s marry within 90 days of arriving? A lot of them don't have SSN at time of filing I-485.

 

Oh, I see, "who has one". I still don't recall providing SSN, but I it's been a while, so might have forgotten...

If it was pre-1998ish you didn’t have to. After that technically the federal law requires all people to have an SSN, but it’s been interpreted by the executive branch of both state and federal governments not to apply to people who cannot acquire one. States have to keep it on file to make it easier to garnish wages for child support.
