An incorrect social shouldn't be a bar to a modification. Lack of income is a bar. Not sure I understand. Neither one of you is here legally? How come you cannot get a SSN?
You need to contact the following:
1. An Immigration Attorney for both you and your husband. Try www.attorneypages.com and check his or her record at the Arizona State Bar.
2. Arizona Department of Financial Institutions to file predatory lending complaints against the mortgage banker, mortgage broker and/or loan originator. http://www.azdfi.gov/
