      You’ve had to present your physical social security card when accepting a job?? I have never and I’ve worked for a dozen different companies

          Never had to show the physical card myself either. Put the number in the online form and done. And yes I am taxed

          Maybe it’s regional? They don’t ask for my card in Michigan. But I do need to present it for a few things done at the SOS office. That’s the DMV in Michigan.

            I mean, when every place specifically asks for your social and ID, yeah you do necessarily need to present it.

            I ain’t carrying my birth certificate around with me.

                Why are you just repeating what twenty other people already said in this post?

                  Because that seems to be your argument as to why you should use a social security card over a birth certificate for the i-9.

        That’s a US ss card in the thumbnail. We’re obviously talking about the US

          Just knowing the number has been enough for every job I’ve ever had. The only place that has ever cared about the physical card is the DMV.

                You responded to the same comment. And both times it’s the same response. I never said they disputed anything.

                  Ok so here’s the deal. You replied to a guy who said “I don’t know how ot is in the US. but…” with a dumb comment about how this is clearly a US card so it’s a US issue. Your response made no sense (to me) because the original comment wasn’t claiming anything that required US insight. They were simply providing input from their neck of the world.

                  Thus my confused response as to what this being a US social security card has to do with anything. Nobody asked for clarification on that, just used it as a launch point for their comment.

      There are other forms of id that are valid; for most jobs I’ve provided my driver id and my passport
