Original Social Security Card

To apply for an original card, you must provide at least two documents to prove age, identity, and U.S. citizenship or current lawful, work-authorized immigration status. If you are not a U.S. citizen and do not have DHS work authorization, you must prove that you have a valid non-work reason for requesting a card.

Replacement Social Security Card

To apply for a replacement card, you must provide one document to prove your identity. If you were born outside the U.S., you must also provide documents to prove your U.S. citizenship or current, lawful, work-authorized status. See page 2 for an explanation of acceptable documents.

Changing Information on Your Social Security Record

To change the information on your Social Security number record (i.e., a name or citizenship change, or corrected date of birth) you must provide documents to prove your identity, support the requested change, and establish the reason for the change. For example, you may provide a birth certificate to show your correct date of birth. A document supporting a name change must be recent and identify you by both your old and new names. If the name change event occurred over two years ago or if the name change document does not have enough information to prove your identity, you must also provide documents to prove your identity in your prior name and/or in some cases your new legal name. If you were born outside the U.S. you must provide a document to prove your U.S. citizenship or current lawful, work-authorized status. See page 2 for an explanation of acceptable documents. LIMITS ON REPLACEMENT SOCIAL SECURITY CARDS Public Law 108-458 limits the number of replacement Social Security cards you may receive to 3 per calendar year and 10 in a lifetime. Cards issued to reflect changes to your legal name or changes to a work authorization legend do not count toward these limits.

Sports Gambling Term Paper

...Americans are familiar with the nation s major addictions: narcotics, alcohol, and tobacco. Society has spent countless millions of dollars warning about these substances, however another addiction that receives far less attention is sweeping across America. This addiction is having a major impact on the college campuses across our nation. The executive director of the N.C.A.A., Cedric W. Demsey, in his 1997 State of the Association address called gambling the most serious threat facing intercollegiate athletics(Naughton A52). At the heart of the gambling problem on college campuses is college sports gambling. Gambling on college sports has two major impacts. First, gambling on sports just like casino gambling is addictive. Secondly, gambling on college sports has hurt the integrity of college athletics. Because gambling on college sports is causing negative consequences for college students, athletes, and athletic games, the U.S. government should ban all gambling on college sports, and steps should be taken to decrease the prevalence of illegal and Internet gambling on college campuses. On March 19, 1931, the Nevada state government voted to legalize gambling. At this time no one had ever heard of the term, sports book . It would be some forty years later before the first sports book would open up in Las Vegas. The Union Plaza Hotel in downtown Las Vegas opened the first casino sports book in 1975. A sports book is a place where a bet can be made on a sporting event. Nevada...

Ellen Raskin's The Westing Game

...“The Westing Game,” by Ellen Raskin is about a rich man’s game with 16 heirs and a murderer. The book starts off with 16 heirs grieving over the loss of their dear old uncle Sam. They all get partnered up and are given a fixed set of clues leading to who killed Sam and a chance at millions. There is a catch though. Some people aren’t who they say they are. Remember, it’s not what you have that counts, it’s what you don’t have. Since there is a movie and a book version of the story, there are both similarities and differences. The characters changed from the book to the movie. Angela is not marrying Denton Deere, she is marrying Ed Plum. In fact, Denton Deere, Flora Baumbach, Madame Hoo, and Theo Theodorakis isn’t even in the movie. Sydelle...

Analysis of Silver Linings Playbook

...Emily Kraft, RN “Silver Linings Playbook” Review: Family Dynamics Trocaire College Everybody has a little bit of crazy in them right? The film Silver Linings Playbook is the perfect example of this statement. The movie was released in 2012 and was based on the novel The Silver Linings Playbook. The film was a blockbuster in the theaters along with winning countless Academy Awards and Golden Globe nominations. The Solitano family had many issues that were portrayed over time such as marriage problems, gambling, losing jobs, lying, mental problems, relationship problems; you name it and they had it. If it weren't for everyday common struggles among the average American family, people wouldn't know how to fight for their families or cope with the choices and consequences. I believe that these circumstances make us better and much stronger people, and we therefore, end up with stronger relationships within our family and friendships. Out of the list of films provided to choose from, I chose Silver Linings Playbook because I had heard many great things from fellow coworkers and friends. I'm surprised I hadn't watched it any sooner than I did. The film really showed me every individual within an average family lives day to day with internal struggles that are hard to overcome without the help of a support network. The main character, Pat Solitano Jr., who is played by Bradley Cooper, is a man with bipolar disorder who just left a psychiatric hospital in Maryland to return home...

...Marcel Martinez Blessed Hope Academy Prohibition was a period in which the sale, manufacture, or transport of alcoholic beverages became illegal. It started January 16, 1919 and continued to December 5, 1933. Although it was formed to stop drinking completely, it did not even come close. It created a large number of bootleggers who were able to supply the public with illegal alcohol. Many of these bootleggers became very rich and influential through selling alcohol and using other methods. They started the practices of organized crime that are still used today. Thus, Prohibition led to the rapid growth of organized crime.      The introduction of the provision in 1919 created numerous opinions and issues in American society. Prohibition has been a long-standing issue in America, with groups promoting it since the late eighteenth century. The movement grew tremendously during the nineteenth century. When the United States entered World War 1 in 1914, there was a shortage of grain due to wartime demands to feed the soldiers. Since grain is one of the major components in alcohol, the temperance movement now had the war to fuel their fight. Thus, the war played a large part in the introduction of Prohibition. During the next five years many states enacted their own prohibition laws, and finally, on December 16, 1919, Amendment 18 went into effect. It states that, “…the manufacture, sale, or transportation of intoxicating liquors…. For beverage purpose is hereby prohibited.”(Constitution) ...

I will identify any assumptions on which my perceptions are based, and answer the following questions. How would you describe or define organized crime? How does your perception compare to the definitions in the readings? What characteristics do you think are associated with organized criminal behavior? In my mind, when I think of organized crime, I think back to the days of the mafia, the Costa Nostra. People like: John Gotti “The Teflon Don”, Al Capone, Charles “Lucky’ Luciano, Bugsy Seigel, and “Machine Gun” Kelly, powerful crime families like the Gambino and Genovese families.

These men were at times ruthless criminals and at times loving family men, proven by the fact that they called their gangs a family, even though not all the men in the families were related.

Sports Gambling Research Paper

...of Sports Gambling Each year more than $380 billion is wagered legally and illegally on sports (CNN.com). It’s estimated that only about 4% or roughly $1.5 billion is wagered legally in the state of Nevada, the only state where sports gambling is legal. The majority of the wagers are placed either thru local bookies or online sportsbooks based outside of the United States in an attempt to avoid prosecution from the US government. The US government is missing out on an opportunity. This illegal activity could be legalized which would in turn lead to much needed additional revenue and creation of additional jobs. Sports gambling is a big business, currently the only people capitalizing on this business is the state of Nevada, the local bookie, and offshore sportsbooks. The fact that nearly $365 billion dollars is changing hands each year without a single penny being taxed is quite concerning. The common worker is forced to pay more and more dollars in payroll tax to cover rampant government spending. Wouldn’t it make sense to legalize sports gambling which could provide additional revenue for local governments and schools while also creating additional job opportunities? According to a 2008 Gallup poll, one in six US citizens had gambled in the previous 12 months, a number that has no doubted grown by today (Gallup.com). Sports gambling could be run very similar to state lotteries which would allow it to be tightly regulated and controlled. It’s no doubt that US citizens are...

He claimed every movement he made to be distinct and purposeful and inspired by by a graceful necessity. He could improvise entire dance numbers to songs he'd never heard before and a lot of the choreography he worked with and instructed with was made up on the spot. Bolger was never the biggest fan of making movies and never took it very seriously. According to The Making of The Wizard of Oz By Aljean Harmetz Bolger spent more time on set gambling money on horse races then working on his performance. He apparently had a former vaudeville buddy who became his bookie and met him on set to take his bets. Bolger’s legacy can been seen in any modern production of The Wizard of Oz.
