寶寶護照和社會安全卡上麵簽名的官方信息

寶寶的護照上麵說必須有簽名才有效。寶寶的社會安全卡上也有簽名的地方。可小娃娃們不能寫字。我找了一下老帖，有一些正確的答案，混雜在不正確的信息裏，而且沒有官方信息的連接。現在我把我google的結果放上來，省得大家都要上網找半天官方信息。

１。護照需要父母之中一人代簽：先Print寶寶的名字，再Sign父母某一人的名字，跟著括號裏注明是mother還是father.　官方說法在這：

My child is too young to sign his/her own passport. How do I sign my child\'s passport?
In the space provided for the signature, the mother or father must print the　child\'s name and sign their own name. Then, in parenthesis by the parent\'s name, write the word (mother) or (father) so we know who signed for the child.


２。社會安全卡是不能由父母代簽的。要等到寶寶長大了自己簽（18歲，或參加第一份工作，哪個早算哪個）。官方說法在這：

I\'m expecting my first baby this year. What do I need to do to get a Social Security number for my baby?
It is a good idea to apply for a number at the hospital when you apply for your baby’s birth certificate. The state agency that issues birth certificates will share your child’s information with us, and we will mail the Social Security card to you.

Or, you can wait and apply at any Social Security office or by mail. If you wait, here is what you need to do to apply for a Social Security number for your child:
? Complete an Application For A Social Security Card (Form SS-5);
and
? Show us documents proving your child’s:
? U.S. citizenship;
? Age; and
? Identity.
? Show us a document proving your identity.

All documents must be either originals or copies certified by the issuing agency. We cannot accept photocopies or notarized copies of documents.

We must verify your child’s birth record, which can add up to 12 weeks to the time it takes to issue a card. We will mail your child’s number and card as soon as we have verified your documents with the issuing offices.

For more information, see Documents You Need for a Social Security Card.

Children should not sign their Social Security card until their first job or age 18, whichever comes first. A signature on the card is not required for the card to be valid.

Keep your child’s Social Security card in a safe place with your other important papers. Do not carry it with you.
