minus-squarescottywh@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·7 months agoAre they fingerprinting babies these days? They didn’t do that or assign SSNs when I was born. My dad had to apply to get my SSN at some point when I was like 6-8 years old to continue claiming me as a dependent on his taxes. Granted, that was over 40 years ago but I don’t remember any of that happening when my 19 year old was born either (except for the birth certificate).
