I need to get a replacement Social Security card. How can I do that?
Answer
If you lost your card, you may not need a replacement. In most cases, simply knowing your Social Security number (SSN) is enough.
If you do need a replacement, we make it easy. Answer a few questions to see if you can complete the request online, or if you need to finish part or all of your request in person. Either way, you’ll receive your Social Security card in the mail within 14 days after your application is completed.
Request a copy of a lost, stolen, or damaged card.
