I want to get a social security card for my non-citizen child, what documents do I need?
================
for your child, the first thing is to know your child's immigration status
Do you want to know how to prove your child's immigration status?
Not right now.
What if my son does not have authorization to work from the DHS?
We can change your son's name if needed but we can't issue a new corrected card, and he can't use a non-work social security number for work purposes.
What if I'm not a U.S. citizen?
then you'll need to show your current U.S. immigration document from the DHS.
================
in case my son changes his name, what problems could he get if he doesn't inform Social Security?
In that case, it could delay yours and your child's tax refund.
================
what if I can't get some of the documents asked?
We would ask you for other documents, and all documents submitted must be current and show your name, identifying information, date of birth and a recent photograph.
