Did You Know Social Security Can Do These 8 Things for You?

Baby names are galore.

The Social Security Administration is there for all the new parents out there, especially if they can apply for their baby’s Social Security number before they even leave the hospital. It’s also a good idea to do so, as you only need the number to claim the child as a dependent on your next tax return and get him or her medical coverage, among a couple of other things.

Another delightful byproduct of this type of early involvement is that Social Security is the ideal go-to resource for all things baby. The SSA famously released an annual list of some of the most popular choices (2020, for example, was the year of Olivia and Liam, as was 2019), but its baby names index also allows you to search for top names depending on the year, decade, and state and see just how your own handle held up over time.

It’s definitely a treasure trove of ideas for naming your newborn and of cultural data for nomenclature nerds.

    These people want you to change your insurance company to get the card.

      You are right. Contacted them and the spiel was about signing up for new insurance.

      If you live within 20 miles of any large city there are many food banks that can be found online. As well, if you do not, then many churches give away food once a month to those in need. You can find these online or even using your smartphone, if you have one. Simply enter into the query “local food banks” or “churches giving away food monthly”.
      As for utilities, the Salvation Army and Catholic Charities, again online can be found that offer help.
      Also, if you are in relatively good health, you can hire yourself out as a companion for other elderly people living alone by placing an ad online or in a local newspaper. Many families are looking for mature trustworthy people that may assist and be a companion to their elderly parent or grandparent that lives alone. You will need some references from friends or past employers or former co-workers that can vouch for your character, however.
