The automobile's design (characteristic of 1937-1939 models) provides a firm earliest possible date. The subject's attire, specifically the double-breasted jacket and wide-collared shirt, is quintessential early-to-mid 1940s casual-formal style. The pose with a car is a classic trope of immigrant success in the United States during this era.
