For New York, no SSN required. However, marriage cannot take place
until 24 hours after issuance of the marriage license. So if you plan
on getting married the day after the arrival on K-1, you better apply
for the marriage license the same day as arrival.

Here's some information on marriage in Kansas. It's doesn't
specifically say SSN is needed, but it does say that you can't get
married until 1 month after filing the marriage license. So again, the
marriage won't happen the day after the K-1's arrival.

We got married in Phoenix, Arizona. There was no waiting from the time
of marriage license application to ceremony. We applied at 3:00 pm and
got married at 5:00 pm the same day.

Every state (or perhaps county) is different.

Best Wishes,

We had even less time between our application and wedding. Basically, after
getting the license, walked 3 blocks to the marriage commissioner's office
and had it done right then, in Vegas :-) Stopped at the Clark County
Recorder's office to order copies of the certificate, then high-tailed it to
LA for a Medieval Times dinner :-)
