social security #?

harvest-wed · May 2011

did anyone get theirs yet for baby? My crap-tastic health insurance won't give her an ID # until we get her SS#... how long did yours take to get? We filled out the PPW at the hospital when she was 1 day old, she was born April 27... thanks!

When we left the hospital, they told us we'd get it in the mail in about 6 weeks. She was born April 5th, and will be 5 weeks old tomorrow. Haven't gotten it yet.

I got mine before he was three weeks old. Of course, they sent it with the incorrect name so it does me no good.

LO was born on April 16 and we got her SS Card in the mail last Tuesday (May 3).

We filled out the paperwork in the hospital. They told us 6-10 weeks. By the end of her 1st week the card came in the mail.

I was told it would be up to 10 weeks before we got it and the birth certificate. Our insurance wants the birth certificate ASAP as well... and won't take the 'verification of birth' form we got at the hospital. Grr.

My LO was born on April 26th and we filled out the paperwork a day or two later. We just got his SS#/card today in the mail.

Ugh, LO was born April 1st and we still don't have his. I even called the hosptial to check to make sure that filling out the paperwork was a part of their process and they said it was. Who knows when we will get it.

It took us a month to get the paperwork back for his brith certificate... when DH copied my drivers license the experiation date was cut off so we had to send in a new copy and do some more waiting for that too.

For those of you that haven't gotten your LO's SSN card and it has been about 4 weeks....call Social Security and verify that a number has been issued. They can't give you the number over the phone, but they can verify whether or not a number has been issued. If a number has been issued, go to your local SSA office and order a duplicate SSN card for your LO. Make sure that you have proper ID & you should have no problem.

(FYI - I work for SSA)

DS was born April 8th and we received his card before he was two weeks old.

ManiacMcGee · May 2011

I was told it would take at least 4weeks.

kattmurphy · May 2011

DS was born on the 26 and we got his SSC Like a week and a half later...

MrsCali_Bride · May 2011

We got their cards less than 2 weeks after they were born.

Jack was born on April 24th and we received his SS card on May 5th.

normajeane6126 · May 2011

We got it about 3 weeks after he was born.

kje120 · May 2011

Yep - we filled out that paperwork before we even left the hospital and had his card a week or so later.

p1nklemonade · May 2011

she was a bit over 3 weeks.

patientblueeyes1980 · May 2011

We received his within 2 weeks of being home.

ErinNewman1981 · May 2011

We just got DS's SSN today. DS was born 4/20.

Nanna · May 2011

M was born 4/17 and we didn't fill out the stuff with the birth cert clerk until the 19th. We got M's ss card in the mail 2 days ago, so just shy of her turning 3 weeks old.

sweetgirl425 · May 2011

My baby was born the 4/15, we did the paperwork 4/16 and we got her SS card in the mail last week ( I think on Wed. or Thurs.). So no where near the 6 weeks it could take!
