I'm really bugged about the ss card too and that's why I use it to comply with the state's requirement but I need further id for my personal requirement. We can use the ss card because it has a signature and that's one of our id requirements here. We've had mandated id requirements for almost 2 years and our legislators just didn't use common sense when they took away our ability to use our own judgment. We need unexpired government issued id that contains a photo and signature or physicial description and an id number. A ss card has an id number & signature so it's acceptable. I for one am not a hand writing expert. How many people have signed that card at 16 years old and haven't changed their signature in the next ??? years.
As for your credible witnesses, I'm always amazed when you CA notaries talk about them. I can't imagine sitting in someone's kitchen waiting while they make phone calls to have people come to the house to id them for me. |
