In Case You Were Wondering

     From a press item prepared by the Social Security Administration:
Q: How many Social Security numbers have been issued since the program started?
A: Since 1935, we have assigned more than 465 million Social Security numbers and each year we assign about 5.5 million new numbers. With approximately 1 billion combinations of the 9-digit Social Security number, the current system will provide us with enough new numbers for several generations into the future.

Show us documents proving your age, identity and new or revised citizenship status
