[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have never had to show a SS card, which is good, because I e never had one. Good grief. Is this something I should figure out how to get for my kid? I assume it’s like birth and marriage certificates, where you can pay for an official certified copy from Richmond or whatever?[/quote]

Yes.  You should have gotten one when your kid was a baby.[/quote]
Huh. Do you yours from when you were a baby? Is this actually something most people have? I have never once needed it. I’ve never had one as an adult. If my parents had one for me, they never mentioned it. I’ve had a passport since I was 14, and my kid has had one since she was 5. That’s all we’ve ever needed. [/quote]
If you got a SSN for your child, then you must have been given the card.

As far as I am aware, most people do this when the baby is born. I think it might be in the set of docs the hospital gives, one of which is for ordering a copy of the birth certificate.

Our DMV also requires the SSN (not the physical card, just the number) to issue a new state ID/learner permit/license.[/quote]
Of course she has a SSN and we know what it is (we file taxes, after all). I think we did get a card when she was a baby, but hell if I know where it is after 3 moves. I’ve never had one, as I said, or needed one (if my parents had it, which it sounds like they must have, they never gave it to me), so I guess I never figured the physical card was important after nearly 50 years without it. Didn’t need DD’s to get her a passport at age 5, and the passport is all we’ve ever needed to get anything else (like learner’s and license).

I’m inclined not to worry about trying to get a reissued card at this point [b]when a passport seems to work for everything[/b], but we’ll see. [/quote]

worked for OP's kid until the school requested it...[/quote]
