I mistakenly thought the standard procedure to file for an SSN was to do so with the I485. Only afterwards, I realized it must be done two weeks after arrival and two weeks before the 90 days are up. Without the SSN which it seems like will not be available until we receive the green card, my spouse does not have enough points to qualify for an ID under the DMV rules. It seems like if you don't have the SSN, you also wouldn't be able to obtain other pieces of proof that the DMV accepts so I'm wondering if anyone has had luck finding a way around this?
