QuestionInsurance Question  Do I have to have a social security number to get a driver license?

AnswerAuto Insurance Answer

Every state has different laws pertaining to the requirements of getting a drivers license. You should contact your state's drivers license office to see their requirements.

Most states now require a social security number in order to get a drivers license.

In the past the Social Security Administration was able to give an SSN in order to allow persons to get a drivers license. They can no longer assign an SSN to a non-citizen solely for the purpose of obtaining a driver's license. Non-citizens otherwise ineligible for an SSN can, however, obtain one for purposes other than employment when:

  • A Federal statute or regulation requires the non-citizen to provide an SSN to get a particular benefit or service; or
  • A State or local law requires the non-citizen to provide a SSN to get general assistance benefits.

Good luck, if you need insurance you don't need your SSN to get a car insurance quote.
