What documents do I need to get my kid a Social Security card?
================
We need documents that proof citizenship
We would need your child 's foreign birth certificate if you have it or can get it within 10 days.  If not ,we will consider other documents such as your child 's passport or a document issued by DHS as evidence of your child 's age .
She doesn't have a passport
What if we lived outside of the United States and had some documents from there
If your child lived outside the United States for an extended period , a current or previous passport, school and/or employment records and any other record that would show long - term residence outside the United States are documents that we may need to see.
and I could use the report of birth right?
Yes, we can accept only certain documents as proof of U.S. citizenship. The Certification of Report of Birth DS-1350 is one of them

Also since my kid doesn't have a passport what else would be acceptable?
