In the last couple of years my wife and I have applied for and got id.me verification. Living overseas the process included a video interview for identity purposes where we had to hold up our passports, and then also our SS cards, front and back. It seemed a bit bizarre to have to show our physical SS cards for identity purposes and I can’t remember the last time we actually used them like this. Probably back when we lived in Texas and got our driving licenses.And this is quite annoying. It’s the only time we have to take our SS card somewhere.
