Hi. You don't have to wait for AOS. My husband applied for his SSN two weeks after he arrived here on his K1. You need to wait at least 10 days to make sure he's in the system but do it before the 76th day I believe. I think you are in NYC as we are. There are a few different SS offices here depending on where you live. My husband got his card in the mail in 8 days. You can print the form online and have it filled out before you arrive. The EAD stamp is only good for 90 days as well.
