Primary document: Driver's license, passport, or other government-issued photo. Secondary document: Social Security card, utility bill, or vehicle registration. Note: If you are verifying using Self-Service or a short video call, you only need to provide a driver’s license, state ID, passport or passport card.
When you request a replacement or a corrected Social Security card, you must show us proof of your identity, immigration status and work authorization. In addition, if you need to change or correct any information on your Social Security card, you need to show us certain documents about the change.
In most cases, the actual card is not necessary but, if your agency or organization requires proof, and the person can’t produce a card, there are other documents that show their SSN. If other documents are not available, that person will need a replacement card.
