What you get with every Social Security card replacement
Every tier includes the same core service. Higher tiers add speed and dedicated support.
Filled-out SS-5
We pre-fill SSA's Form SS-5 from your wizard answers so you don't transcribe anything yourself. Sign in pen at print time and you're ready.
AI application review
Our AI checks your answers against SSA's rejection patterns — name-on-card mismatches, missing parent info, wrong citizenship document — before you mail.
Routed to your closest SSA office
We auto-select the field office closest to you for fastest processing. A map shows exactly where your package is going.
Pre-addressed shipping label
Print our label, tape it on any envelope, drop at any USPS counter. Ask the clerk for Certified Mail (~$4.85) and you'll have a tracking number.
Pick your speed.
Pick how much we prepare. Both tiers include the filled SS-5, AI review, and office routing.
Smart
AI-assisted, standard speed
+ $0.00 government fee (passed through at cost)
Premier 2-Week
Priority preparation and handling
+ $0.00 government fee (passed through at cost)
All tiers include AI form validation, document review, and submission tracking. Government fees are paid directly to the issuing agency at exact cost — we don't mark them up.
Why pay for what's technically free?
You can do this yourself. Here's what you're actually paying us to handle.
Get it in days, not weeks — through our sister service
A certified copy of your U.S. birth certificate is required for new passports (DS-11), Global Entry, and SSN replacement. Most state vital records offices quote 4-8 weeks. Our sister company Vital Records Online routinely turns it around in 48 hours, with overnight shipping options.
- Apply online in minutes — no county-clerk visit
- All 50 states + DC + territories
- Government fees + service fee shown up front
VitalRecordsOnline.com is operated by our parent company, VRO LLC. Government fees are paid through to the issuing vital records office at cost.
Here's how it works.
Four steps. Most customers complete the first three in under 30 minutes.
Answer a few questions
Name, date of birth, parents, citizenship status. Takes about 10 minutes.
We route + prep
Our AI selects your closest SSA office, validates your answers, and generates the filled SS-5 PDF plus a pre-addressed shipping label.
You sign + mail
Print the SS-5, sign in pen, slip your ID into the envelope, drop at any USPS counter. Ask for Certified Mail to get a tracking number.
Track + receive
Mark 'I mailed it' on your dashboard. SSA processes in 10–14 business days and mails your new card to your home address.
