Sovcit nonsense aside, is it not insane they're asking for a 13 year old's SIN to run a background check? And if he doesn't have a SIN or government ID, he probably wouldn't show up on a background check.

Kids don't theoretically need a SSN and they can apply for their own at 18. But it makes things unnecessarily hard.

Way to go, asshole. Your son will learn to hate you.

Well sovcits are so good at fucking up lives, it's become a family tradition.

I sometimes wonder, if a kid in this position grows up and gets out of the crazy conspiracy theories, what process would they even have to go to to get identification documents and such, given they'd have basically none of the expected ones used to prove identity

Unless it was a home birth with no accredited midwife, they should have a birth certificate somewhere. You can pay for a copy from your state generally. With that, you can painfully get the rest.

No birth certificate? Things get harder.

They can attempt to get him an ITIN but they have to swear under perjury that he isn’t eligible for an SSN in the application with the IRS. Obviously this sovcit parent will do that if they could. I don’t think they will immediately feel any consequences, but that will definitely mess up their son’s retirement benefits.

Maybe he can work with animals by smuggling them to other countries in his pants.
