I can’t say for the US. In Canada I’ve never had to show the card. Just say the number.

That's a US ss card in the thumbnail. We're obviously talking about the US

They weren't disputing that it's a US card though..

Sorry, I responded to the wrong comment. Meant for this to be to the comment above yours. Whoops.

You responded to the same comment. And both times it's the same response. I never said they disputed anything.

Ok so here's the deal. You replied to a guy who said "I don't know how ot is in the US. but..." with a dumb comment about how this is clearly a US card so it's a US issue. Your response made no sense (to me) because the original comment wasn't claiming anything that required US insight. They were simply providing input from their neck of the world.

Thus my confused response as to what this being a US social security card has to do with anything. Nobody asked for clarification on that, just used it as a launch point for their comment.

Ok. Good for you

Just knowing the number has been enough for every job I've ever had. The only place that has ever cared about the physical card is the DMV.
