Pay tax before filling without SSN for spouse

I am applying for SSN for my wife, which can take several months to approve.  So I plan to file an extension before 4/15 so I can file tax by 10/15 after I get my wife's SSN.   But I have some tax obligations to pay.  I would like to pay tax now to avoid interest and penalty.   California and Indiana official tax website both asks for spouse SSN in order to accept my tax payment when I indicated the tax payment is for joint return.  How do I resolve this situation?
