How to Get a Replacement Social Security Card Without Any Form of ID
If you have lost your Social Security card or it has been stolen, you may be wondering how to get a replacement without any form of ID. Fortunately, the Social Security Administration (SSA) has a process in place to help you get a new card without having to provide any form of identification. In this article, we will discuss the steps you need to take to get a replacement Social Security card without any form of ID.
Fill out an application form
Submit the form to the SSA
Provide proof of identity if necessary
Wait for the SSA to review the application
Receive a new card within 10 business days
The first step in getting a replacement Social Security card without any form of ID is to fill out an application form. The application form can be found on the SSA website or you can pick up a copy at your local SSA office. The form will ask for basic information such as your name, address, and date of birth. You will also need to provide your Social Security number if you know it.
Once you have filled out the application form, you will need to submit it to the SSA. You can do this either in person at your local SSA office or by mail. If you choose to submit the form by mail, you will need to include a copy of a document that proves your identity. This could be a copy of your driver’s license, passport, or birth certificate. If you do not have any of these documents, you can submit a copy of a utility bill or bank statement.
Once the SSA has received your application form, they will review it and determine if you are eligible for a replacement Social Security card. If you are eligible, the SSA will mail you a new card within 10 business days. If you are not eligible, the SSA will contact you to let you know why you were not approved.
It is important to note that the SSA will not issue a replacement Social Security card if you have already received three replacement cards in the past year. If this is the case, you will need to provide additional documentation to prove your identity before the SSA will issue you a new card.
