Information about Social Security The Social Security system was established in the 1930s to provide financial aid to the elderly and disabled. To contribute to the fund, both employees and employers must pay social security taxes. Every citizen of the United States and Green Card holder has a unique social insurance number. This is used to keep track of the funds being set up, and to distribute benefits to those who have the right to them.
Students, temporary visitors, and workers with non-immigrant visas may also be allowed to apply for a Social Security Number. The Social Security card in the United States is an important document. It is a document that entitles individuals to certain benefits after retirement. Employers, banks, schools, and the USCIS all use it as an identification card. Social Security is complex and linked to many private and government databases.
