I just moved to San Antonio, TX for a job. Our house in AZ was packed up and in storage.
I need to have a social security card in order to register my truck and obtain a drivers license and tags for my truck.
Problem is, I do not know where my social security card is located in the two storage lockers, with over a 100 boxes.
How can I obtain a new cart?
Thank you.

Hi Ivonne. First, realize you may not need a replacement card. You will rarely need to show it. Knowing your Social Security number is what is important. However, if you must get a replacement card, the process cannot be completed online. To learn more on how to get a replacement card, go to http://go.usa.gov/ZeZ9. Hope this helps!

Hi I am trying to print out an SS5 form for a resident here at the facility and I do not know if I am over looking the form. But if you could point me in the direction I need to go that would be great. Thank you.

Does a minor have to be present to get a replacement social security card. He does have a valid US passport.
