Q1:
Im about to get my EAD card the next couple of days and i will apply for a ssn as soon as i get the card, what should I bring with me? birth certificate from my home country? driver licence?


Q2: my wife wants to change her last name , should she do it before i485 interview or after?

Q3: how long does it take to get the ssn card?

Q4: Can i apply for a job with only the EAD , then if hired i would show social sec. number.
 
Q1: The EAD and the passport.

Q2: Better after you get the GC.

Q3: A couple of weeks generally, but can take up to a couple of months if there's some problem (not necessarily because of you...). If you have an EAD already, it should probably be pretty fast.

Q4: Yes. When hired - provide the letter from SSA that you've applied for SSN, and bring the SSN once you get it. You won't get paid until you bring the SSN, but you can start working.
