What if we don't have those things like ID or passport?
You could use a state issued non - driver 's identification card or an adoption decree
OK, what if we lived in Mexico for some time? will you accept papers from there?
If your child lived outside the United States for an extended period , you could use a current or previous passport ,school and/or employment records ,and any other record that would show long - term residence outside the U.S. to show that your child does not have a Social Security number and needs one.
