Should I go tomorrow? She said I absolutley cant start without it. But I dont want to look like an ass and not show up...What should I do?

Be straight up to him (or her). Tell the boss that you cannot find your card right now but you will be working on it. Tell the boss that you will call the people. Then you will sound resposnible. And she/he will think that you are comfortable with talking to her/him. \nWishing you well!\n\n**Later Added**\n\nOkay, it has been a few days. We all want to know...did you get it?? Oh, I sure hope so. \n\nOur prayers are with you, \n\nPolarGirl8

Sometimes things can come up that causes a delay in the system, so it's possible that they really were just not able to get back to you.  Plus, it was a Friday, during the summer, which means people involved in the hiring decision might have left early for the weekend.  I know how it feels to be waiting - that drove me crazy during my job hunt.  I would see what happens tomorrow, give them the chance to get back into the office and deal with beginning of the week stuff, and if you don't hear from them by later in the afternoon, give them a call and let them know you would enjoy working with them very much, but you have other interviews scheduled, so you would like to know the status of the hiring decision.  They should understand and let you know what's going on.  Or you could call on Tuesday - whatever works for you.  (I would need to call on Monday for peace of mind!)  Good luck, I know how you feel.  I hope you get the job!  =D

OMG! I heard on the news that your identity can be used and there is somekind of shadow record for the person using your identity. Apparently it's nearly impossible for a consumer to find out who and how their identity has been used. Only credit companies, I think, and the gov. have access to ALL the files associated with a certain social security number. I think that they said that it would be an invasion of privacy for you to see the other person's records EVEN if it is on your social security number. CRAZY Huh?! it's true too! (*_*)

I think you have to have an Employment Authorization Card from the U.S. Immigration & Naturalization Service before you can apply for a Social Security Card.  You should check with INS first.  I'm sure that the Social Security Administration will need to see proof of your immigration status before they will consider establishing a Social Security account for you.

The Social Security Administration can answer you. They should already have a record of you employment

Sure, why not?  If you cannot perform work, then you certainly need it.  Some people abuse ssi, it seems you actually need it.

"My security badge doesn't work."\n\n"Yeah, we're changing out the access control system.  You'll need a new badge to get into the office."\n\n"Okay...when can I get a new badge."\n\n"Some time next week. We just ordered them yesterday."\n\n"Next week?  How long have you known we were changing the system?"\n\n"It's been on the schedule since before Christmas.  Why?"\n\n\nD'oh!!!

Get married then file all your paperwork together! Be sure to include an EAD application (employment authorization document\n It is good for one year and renewable if your conditional permanent resident card has not been processed by then! You have the right to work while your application is pending! Mine only took about a month after adjusting my status ( I- 485) . As soon as you receive this , take it to the SS office and get your new social security number!  This is a VERY valid form of ID and all places of employment will accept this to make you a legal tax payer! Good luck!!

IM NOT ABSOLUTELY SURE WHAT THE EXACT ANSWER IS BUT IF YOU HAVE A LAW LIBRARY IN YOUR LOCAL LIBRARY THEN I WOULD START THERE. BUT IN MY STATE THEY EITHER MAIL YOUR LAST CHECK OR YOU SHOW UP TO PICK IT UP ON TEH DAY IT IS ISSUED. HAVE YOUR FRIEND CALL THE CORPORATE OFFICE AND COMPLAIN TO THE HEAD HONCHO AND THAT WILL GET THE CHAINS MOVING QUICKLY,THE ONLY WAY TO PROVE LEGALITY TWORDS AN EMPLOYER,IS TO HAVE PROOF OF YOUR WORK HRS AND DAYS,THEN IF IN YOUR STATE IS A LEGAL AID,START THERE AND ASK FOR HELP,MOST PLACES DONT WANT TO GET INVOLVED,BUT BY LAW THE EMPLOYER HAS TO GIVE THE CHECK,ITS BREAKING THE LAW IF THEY DONT. YOUR FRIEND MIGHT EVEN CONSIDER CALLING FOR POLICE SUPPORT TO RETAIN THE CHECK..

SS# are obviously not required if the respondent is not a US citizen, since you can't have one. It is unclear whether or not you have to supply another sort of identifying number, but I would ask a lawyer about that.

A birth certificate would need to be accompanied by a photo ID such as a driver's license, or other government photo ID in order to show proof of citizenship, along with your sworn statement that you are indeed a citizen with the right to work in the USA.  An employer may require to see your social security card in order to verify that the social security number you use is really your social security number.  They need your social security number for the IRS and the SSA for tax withholding.  That is why you fill out a W-4 form when you are hired.

I've seen ID cards that had been "created" by someone other than a government agency (the only entity authorized by law to issue ID cards)...usually while they were being booked (you know...as in "going to jail").\n\nSo...unless you're making employee badges (which is an altogether different matter), you stand a real good chance of getting booked yourself.\n\nCheers. And don't drop the soap.

Start looking for a new job now.\n\nAlso start documenting everything.  If you have any specific evidence, preserve it, and keep a copy.  If not, just write it down with specific dates.  \n\nSpeak with an attorney.  I'm not saying you need to sue, but you should know your rights.  If you're too poor to afford your own attorney, there are usually places you can get free legal aid or legal advice.  You can usually get numbers with a Yahoo or Google search, or Yahoo Yellow Pages.  Or through a community center.  \n\nKnow who your friends are.  Don't make a big issue of it, but try to get an idea of whether there are people over your supervisors who might be on your side, or coworkers who might speak up on your behalf if you need them to.\n\nBe as polite as you think you can to everyone involved, including the people who are hassling you--but don't let yourself be walked on.  \n\nAnd when you think you've been wronged, get a second opinion from a friend whose opinion you trust (someone outside the workplace, so it won't get back to you).  \n\nGood luck!

I would try to get a new id first.  You will probably need it for more things than just trying to cash a check.  But call the banks and see what they will take as id for you in order to  cash it.

I think you have to call your local ss department. If you look in the phone book under Federal, look for social security. I think you call them, and they send the forms to you. I had to get a form to get my son a new ss card, and they'll send it in the mail. But it takes a while to get the forms. Hope this helps.

I work at a bank. I know that you CAN open a bank account without ssn (you just have to sign W-8 form which they ll provide to you). However, without a social security number you are not eligible for a credit product (such as credit cards, loans etc). HOwever, you can get a debit card with your checking account and spend the money you have in your account with it everywhere in the world accepts Visa, MAster Card (Assuming your debit card will be one of them).\n\nGood luck.
