However, you can request a different number by omitting the SSN from the application. This will give you a number beginning with "S" and having 8 numbers after it. This also seems to aggravate the motor vehicle somewhat. I believe this option is required by the federal Social Security laws. See if something similar is available in Jersey. How about other states? I know at least Washington, D.C. also has SSN's as DL id's by default. -Mike Moroney Brought to you by Super Global Mega Corp .com
