No they cannot. A Judge recently ruled on this in San Francisco CA in August 2009. Ordering Social Security to payback over $500 million dollars to more than 80,000 people. Search for San Francisco newspaper Social Security Benefits in August of this year.
A replacement WHAT? SS Card or SS check? You should be able to request a replacement card by going to any SS office, presenting proper ID proving who you are, and they should be able to issue you one on the spot. A replacement check is somewhat more difficult. Call the SS 800 'hotline' and ask about the procedure to follow. Keep in mind, that in this day and age of linked government computers your name MAY be 'flagged' as a wanted person.
The date of birth should not be incorrect on an arrest warrant. A persons date of birth, social security number, and description are key pieces of information needed for an arrest warrant. However, if your social security number and description are correct, human-error on your date of birth may not totally squash an arrest warrant. I've seen warrants where a persons date of birth is 01/05/1970 and the warrant listed 05/01/1970, but the social security, and physical descriptions were dead on.
Unless the warrant is from a federal court, the Social Security Administration is unlikely to know anything about it. That may be the case even if the warrant is from a federal court.
Yes.
Go to the social security office with proper ID.
for felony yes misdemeanor no
Yes of course you can.
You can visit your local Social Security office to apply for or get a replacement Social Security Card. You will need to have your birth certificate and a picture ID to get a replacement card.
I am not a legal expert, but generally, warrants are within the jurisdiction of law enforcement rather than the Social Security Administration (SSA). However, it is possible for law enforcement to coordinate with other government agencies, so there could be a potential risk. It is advisable to consult with an attorney or legal authority for guidance on how to proceed in your specific situation.
Felonies have nothing to do with having a Social Security card. Contact the Social Security office. They will need your birth certificate.
No. A birth certificate is not considered evidence of identity. Social Security will normally not ask for a birth certificate from someone applying for a replacement (as opposed to original) social security card. Evidence of identity is ALWAYS required for any replacement social security card. Evidence of citizenship is not normally required for a replacement card for someone who was born in the U.S. or who has already proven U.S. citizenship on a previous application for a card. But evidence of identity--preferably a passport, driver's license or state ID card but also a health insurance card, work ID or school ID--will ALWAYS be asked for by Social Security.

They do not check for arrest warrants if you get a state ID. However, they may come up attached to your social security number.
