I had my son on Dec. 23rd, 2008. I applied for a social security card for him, but have not received it yet. Can I claim him without having his SSN?

The child must have SS number before you can claim the child.

Agreed; you need to wait for the SS card to come.

Because you have applied for the Social Security number, the child is NOT eligible for an ITIN.
