You Get a Passport If You Don\u2019t Have a Social Security Card?"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are applying for a U.S. passport, you may wonder whether you need to have your physical Social Security card.The good news is that not having the physical card doesn&#8217;t necessarily prevent you from applying for a\u00a0passport without one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, you generally need to provide your Social Security number if you have been issued one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Do You Need Your Physical Social Security Card?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In many cases, you do not need to submit your physical Social Security card with your passport application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/travel.state.gov\/en\/international-travel\/travel-advisories\/smart-traveler-enrollment-program.html?gad_source=1&amp;gad_campaignid=22996730097&amp;gbraid=0AAAAAqbBk5vmc-hG1LAfffeer9KBIkNAN&amp;gclid=CjwKCAjwwL_UBhAjEiwAEhuT5Lsv9y31PtoSr261uqIdBqUADN_OmAXjfLk-4luUB-xdumiGjOkU1BoCb8YQAvD_BwE\">The U.S. Department of State<\/a> requires applicants who have a Social Security number to provide it on the application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This means losing your Social Security card is different from not having a Social Security number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What If You Know Your Social Security Number?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you know your Social Security number but cannot find your physical card, you can generally still complete your passport application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Make sure you enter your information accurately on the application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have questions about your specific circumstances, check the current passport application instructions before submitting your paperwork.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What If You Do Not Know Your Social Security Number?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have been issued a Social Security number but do not know it, you may need to take additional steps before submitting your passport application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do not guess your number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Instead, work with the Social Security Administration to obtain the information you need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Providing incorrect information can delay your passport application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What If You Have Never Had a Social Security Number?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have never been issued a Social Security number, different rules may apply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/travel.state.gov\/en\/international-travel\/travel-advisories\/smart-traveler-enrollment-program.html?gad_source=1&amp;gad_campaignid=22996730097&amp;gbraid=0AAAAAqbBk5vmc-hG1LAfffeer9KBIkNAN&amp;gclid=CjwKCAjwwL_UBhAjEiwAEhuT5Lsv9y31PtoSr261uqIdBqUADN_OmAXjfLk-4luUB-xdumiGjOkU1BoCb8YQAvD_BwE\"> U.S. Department of State<\/a><\/strong> provides specific instructions for applicants without a Social Security number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You may be required to provide a signed statement explaining that you have never been issued one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because requirements can change, check the current instructions before submitting your application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Do You Still Need Proof of Citizenship?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Yes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your Social Security number and proof of U.S. citizenship serve different purposes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>You may need qualifying citizenship evidence, such as:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>U.S. birth certificate<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Consular Report of Birth Abroad<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Certificate of Naturalization<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Certificate of Citizenship<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Previous U.S. passport, when applicable<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You will also generally need acceptable identification and a passport photo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Can a Missing Social Security Card Delay Your Passport?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Not having the physical card does not automatically mean your passport application will be delayed.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, incomplete or incorrect information can cause problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before submitting your application, check that your personal information is accurate and that you have all required supporting documents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What If You Need Your Passport Quickly?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have upcoming international travel, do not wait until the last minute to start your application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Depending on your circumstances and travel date, expedited passport services may be available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gather your citizenship documents, identification, passport photo, and other required information before submitting your application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How The Passport Office Can Help<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a

passport. However, if you have been issued a Social Security number, you should provide the correct number on your application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you do not know your number or have never been issued one, follow the specific instructions that apply to your situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When in doubt, review the current U.S. passport requirements before submitting your application.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you are applying for a U.S. passport, you may wonder whether you need to have your physical Social Security card.The good news is that not having the physical card doesn&#8217;t necessarily prevent you from applying for a\u00a0passport without one.
