You will not be able to file including her until you have an SSN. Everyone qualifies for an extension until 10/2017, but you do not qualify for an extension to pay tax due. If you will have a refund, go ahead and wait. If you will owe tax once you can include her, then you can extend the filing by 4/18 but you also need to pay the tax due by 4/18.
