Leaving SSN Blank
My company has instructed lawyers to process my AOS from L-1A to green card. Although I came here under employment, I married a USC so filing I-130 and I-485 concurrently (along with all the other associated forms).
In a couple of places it asks for my and my wife's SSN. The lawyers say they intentionally left it blank as "it's not required on these forms and, as it is sensitive data, we do not request it."
Does this sound right? I'm obviously worried it will be rejected.

Re: Leaving SSN Blank
Ostensibly valid, bona fide applications aren't typically rejected if a field is left blank, but it is likely that you will be requested to provide the missing information before the application can be approved.

Most of these listed documents will have a SSN on them…
“For ALL sponsors:
