Depends what state you live in. example in Texas, you have to have your SSN card no matter what. More likely you will be told to wait until you physically have the card.

No way. Have been to SSN office and they refuse to issue it. However, you can get ITIN number which is as good as SSN except that it is not good for driver's licence

Good question..?\nIt would probably make things pretty difficult for your child later on in life, such as getting into school, getting a driver's license, a job, or anything else you have to give your ss# for...but..obviously it's your choice...New some people who didnt do that for their kids one time though, and their kids were trying to get into college and get jobs and just couldn't do it, because they didn't have a number, and it was a real pain in the ass for them to get it later on.

Ask for their social security number.  As an employer you can ask that question.  In the United States, a Social Security number (or SSN) is a number issued to citizens, permanent residents, and temporary (working green card holders) residents under section 205(c)(2) of the Social Security Act, codified as 42 U.S.C. § 405(c)(2).\n\nYou can verify a SSN at the link below ...

yes and no.\n\nyes:\n1.  you will have a hard time getting liability insurance if you can not prove you are qualified.\n2.  it will improve client confidence.\n3.  it cant hurt to have it on a resume.\n4.  it is very easy to obtain and you never need to renew it.  if you pass you are A+ for life.\n\nno:\n1.  there are no laws stating that you need it (at least in Illinois, Iowa, or Wisconsin.)  I have never heard of any state requiring it.\n2.  You will not be denied a business license if you dont have it.

Life insurance benefits are not taxable according to IRS.\nAs for the checking account, that is not taxable either.\nSo good news for you, no taxes are due.\n\nhttp://www.irs.gov

You will be unable to get a telephone number or street address associated with a social security number. You'll have to return it to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services located at www.uscis.gov.

There are quite a few people who work for UCLA, the Post Office and several other organizations who are not required to have social security numbers,because their employers carry their own reirement fund..  I don't know how that works for paying taxes and opening bank accounts; but. it's true they don't have ssa#'s.\n\n  Issuing sa#'s to babies is a fairly recent development (within the last 20-25 years).  I think the people who don't have ssa#'s started working for an exempted company before they applied for a card.  But, yes, they're perfectly legal.  Remember, a social security card was never intended to be a form of identification for anything but retirement.  I don't even think it's legal to require that a person produce a social security card as a form of I.D.

nope. you can only protect against it by not letting the wrong person get hold of your ssn. That's almost impossible now, by the way, with computer hacker technology, various businesses who have that info selling it, and the less high minded of the general public catching on to the possibilities of what can be done with that info.  I personally had my ssn (and photo) stolen when I renewed my driver's license.  Forgers produced a drivers license, pay stubs, various impt. papers, which were all fakes. They used this info to attempt to take out bank loans in my name.  Fortunately, a couple of employees at that particular BMV were already being watched by the FBI, and also, I was blessed by a very sharp loan officer.  I was notified by bank officials that this had happened and that arrests would be made that day when the thief showed up at the banks (2 of them) to sign final loan papers and pick up the money. I was lucky.  Best advice: check your credit reports if something doesn't look right. Also, through the credit report companies, you can request to have purchases over certain amounts or requiring credit, to be "must calls"--that is, you personally must give express acknowledgment that you are making this purchase or requesting credit.  It's a safeguard.  But gosh watch out, the scams nowadays are unbelievable.

Unless it's a personal loan from family or friends, you can't.  They all require a SS#.

The purpose of the social security number is to identify a person for the determination of taxation, and hopefully, disbursement of benefits. It is unnecessary to issue a card to a fetus, as it has not yet had the opportunity to incur either tax debt or benefits. Be assured, if there were a way to tax a fetus en utero, our government would have found it, which would give legitimacy to your hypothesis.

yeah, in witness protection program. otherwise you have to die and be ressurected in america\n\nyou can start over any time though, its a tough process but at the end you would be the person you would want yourself to be with a new social security number. I hear the credit report and the history only goes up to 7 years on file since the date of repayment.

Don't give your social security number away, no matter what.

Estate is something you own. If you die and you don't name any beneficiaries on your life insurance policy, all death benefits will be paid to your estate. From that point on, the money will stay there until someone in your family claims it (of course this usually result in a family feud and all settlements will have to be settled in court).\n\nSo what I suggest if this person owns life insurance and has no named beneficiary, he/she better name one as soon as possible.\n\nAnother way to look at it is that you have a savings account in heaven and only people who can touch it is your family and your relatives. The government has no access to it. :-D

I bought life insurance when I was 23. The main reason I bought it was to lock into the low rate. As you get older, the cost to cover you gets more expensive. Second reason was that if I were to die, my parents would have money to use toward retirement. Of course, my reasons will change when I get married some day. For now, my parents are my beneficiary.\n\nAnyway, you don't buy life insurance. You have to qualify for it. You will be subjected to medical testing such as urine test and blood test and HIVs.\n\nIf you want to know the two main types of life insurance, read this: http://obe231.blogspot.com

No, but you do need your birth certificate.
