Can I claim my father in law as depedent, he died after coming to US, as a permanent resident, within two months. We had not gone for his SSN. He fell sick and eventually passed away.
Interesting. The Form 1040 instructions, page 19, in the part where it talks about SSN for dependents, has a note that if a dependent child was born and died and had no SSN, you can write "Died" and include the birth and death certificates. It does not mention other types of dependents. Maybe you need to consult a tax lawyer. Or just try the same procedure as for the dependent child and see if it works.
