Are you going to apply for retirement benefits or medicare?
No, not yet. Just looking for information as reference.
But, eventually you'll apply, don't you?
Yeah, of course i will.
Great. When you do it, you must be ready to supply the information we need to approve your application for these benefits, such as Form SSA-1 Apply for Retirement Benefits or Medicare.
Do you have or not a birth certificate?
Yeah, i don't have one at the moment.
Well, you don't have to worry, because you can request one from the state where you were born.
That's a relief. So, to be sure, i just need Form SSA-1 to be completed when i finally apply for benefits, right?
That's correct. That's all you need.
Do you need more information, like where to write for more details, or something else?
