I would like to apply for a Social Security Card for my child, what documents do I need to submit?
================
First off you must prove your child's citizenship.
Do you possess a U.S .- State - Issued birth certificate that recorded your child's birth before age 5?
Yes I have it.
Well you must submit this document.
If I don't have it what happens?
In that event, we may consider other documents, such as your child 's passport, as proof of age.
Do I need to prove that he lived in the Untied States?
We may ask you for information about schools he went to.
What i.d.do I need to show ?
You must provide us with either a U.S. driver 's license or a State - issued non - driver identification card.
Do I need to bring him to your offices?
If you child is age 12 or older and requesting an original Social Security number, he must appear in person for an interview.
