Cite that law. (SS card) I know I haven't missed mine, all my life.
The USCG never asked for it, nor did IBM, the state of Florida,
everyone I contracted with or any bank or financial institution I
dealt with.

SSA didn't even want to see it. Why do you need one?

Only document that ever held me up is a Birth Cert, I don't have one...

My birth certificate was the one issued by the hospital with my
footprint on it
When I got my Fl Drivers license they screwed with me about why it
wasn't an official DC public document. (raised seal etc)
I took off my shoe, held up my foot and said "see, it is me". The lady
laughed and stamped my application.

--------------------

My mother did not have a birth certificate. Born in a snow storm in
Western Nebraska, and doctor figured she would not survive and did not
file the paperwork. She showed him, died 5 weeks short of 96. But to
get Social Security, had to go to the 1920 Census paperwork to prove she
was born in 1914.

I wasn't too involved but my parents went through hell trying to get me
a drivers license.. I think it may have actually been the SS Card that
was the problem but I don't quite remember. Anyway, like I said, I don't
have a birth cert, just a "notice of registration of birth"... Different
animal as far as the gubmit is concerned..

I think Birth Certificates are for humans only.....
