There is nothing 'illegal' about your parents not giving you your social security card. If you are a minor, your parents have the legal authority to make most all decisions concerning many areas. Why do you need your social security card? These cards serve no purpose, and cannot be used as a form of ID. Duplicate social security cards can be applied for at any social security office.
These days, Social Security Numbers are assigned at birth and the card is given to the parents. anyone older than that who does not have a Social Security Card, perhaps because they are an adult immigrant, can apply for a card if they have legal status for an extended stay in the US.

An illegal alien can't get a social security card. They are only issued to legal citizens.
it's not neccessarily a law it's more a debate between you and your parents but if they will not give you your card I would ask for a copy of it like i had to do.
One day. Lots of times the hospital applies for the social security card for the parents as a service.
You have to go to the social security office to get a social security card.
There is no minimum age. Most parents get social security cards for their children before their first birthday nowadays.
It is pretty simple to get a social security card. All US natural born citizens and legal immigrants and people here with legal visas are eligible to get a social security card. You can visit the official website at www.ssa.gov/ and locate a location near you. The entire process at the office does not take more than an hour or so, and you should expect to receive your card within 2-3 weeks.
Felonies have nothing to do with having a Social Security card. Contact the Social Security office. They will need your birth certificate.
AnswerYour parents should already have gotten you a social security card so they could claim you on their taxes. You would need to get a replacement card in that case. Call Social Security and ask what you need to bring in--probably just need a picture ID.
Generally yes. In the United States, it is illegal to put a person's social security number on any id card other than a social security card. There is no such law preventing the use of a birth date.
The one on the birth certificate is the legal name.
