How soon can visa overstay get employment authorization if married to American citizen?

Generally speaking, USCIS issues an employment authorization approximately 90 days after an I-485 application for adjustment of status to permanent residence is filed if so requested on form I-765 application for employment authorization. I note that in the process, your US citizen spouse would have to submit an I-864 affidavit of support form on your behalf. Your income would not count for purposes of the affidavit of support. As your contemplated spouse is unemployed, you should both also think of contacting relatives or friends to see whether they would be amenable to submitting joint affidavits of support on your behalf.

Hello. If you marry a US citizen, you will get a work permit in 3 months. What type of visa did you enter with and when?  You will need a joint sponsor, if your US spouse cannot show their financially ability to sponsor you. You can get an ITIN by applying, but it does not give you the right to work. You can get a SSN after you get the work permit.
