Who the fuck has their original Social Security card?

I have mine, but I didn't get one until I was 17 and needed to apply for a job, so it's never been in anyone else's custody.

I can relate to the bureaucratic idiocy, though. My birth was never properly registered (I was born in a military hospital, where you'd think they would have been more concerned about paperwork, but who knows), so when I was starting kindergarten, my parents had to go through all sorts of machinations to get me a legal birth certificate. I still get nervous when someone asks to see it.

Hope everything gets straightened out for you soon!
