What to do if a person has provided an employer with a fake social security card and is marrying a USC? Unauthorized work isn't a bar for immediate relatives, and they didn't present themselves as a USC for a benefit under the Act, so AOS as usual is my thinking. Am I right?

Employment is considered a benefit under the Act. So as long as no false claim to USC in their employment, they can adjust through USC spouse.

No automatic false claim because LPRs, DACA and other imm statuses are given a SSN. You need to confirm with client that they did not list themselves as USC on the I-9. I’ve had client provide fake ss and fake LPRs, but then HR still lists them as USCs in the I-9.
