re: I'm taking legal action against the Office of Motor Vehicles

I linked internal revenue code (federal law), the IRS website where the first few lines say a SSN number is required, and the constitution (highest law in the land) that authorizes the IRS
Cut and dry. SSN required
And he just said "I'll look into it"
Y'all are wasting your time
Also, it's not just the SS tax, but he's "setting up his son for the future" basically claiming he won't have to work a day in his life, so either you have a room full of cash with billions he couldn't spend in one lifetime or you have bank and investment accounts. Which will earn interest and dividends. Which will have capital gains
All taxable
If he decides to sell drugs, taxable
Income from all sources derived

Your best argument is that the civil code defines "driver's license" pretty broadly:
"License" or "driver's license" means any license, which shall include a license that complies with the standards of REAL ID as provided for in R.S. 32:410(E), secured from the Department of Public Safety and Corrections, in accordance with this Chapter to operate a motor vehicle on the highways of this state.
If a TIP or learner's license (not clear which you are applying for) allows him to operate a motor vehicle on the highways of Louisiana, it is arguably included in the statute regarding SSNs.
If it's a TIP, they still might argue that a "permit" is not a "license," and that the two different terms are used for a reason.

Your understanding of the law is bad. I haven’t researched the issue, but your amateur attempts at legal reasoning and logic are making me less and less confident in your chances here
Please help me out then. I’m being serious.
If the social security section of 32:409.1 ONLY applies to alien individuals AND it’s the only section of title 32 that speaks about social security numbers in relation to licenses then where is the requirement?
Title 55 is the administration law that tells the agencies how to apply the law. These are the operational rules they have to abide by. The requirement isn’t listed in there either.
This is a SHALL statement. The department shall not deny any person.
“Any person” would include my son, wouldn’t it?

You actually found a lawyer to take this case?

Self-representation, bro. His son is the attorney.

The surprising thing I have learned (and it’s just math but most people would do well to do that math) is just how a little additional income (SS) makes a HUGE difference in expected lifespan of your nest egg
may not need to touch principle until RMD kicks in at 75
Take SS out and I run out of money…leave it in and I can live as long as Mother Nature allows me

If the state law doesn’t prohibit them from denying him a license then surely the federal law will.
“(a)(1) It shall be unlawful for any Federal, State or local government agency to deny to any individual any right, benefit, or privilege provided by law because of such individual's refusal to disclose his social security account number.
That language also presupposes the person has a SSN and refuses to disclose it, not that they don't have one at all.

Son will never have to work in his life - dad, incredibly blessed.
What a stupid, fooking, c unnnnt

He didn’t answer my question - what consequence does he spare his son from by not having a SS# where he already has a passport and license? What is the benefit or advantage of not having arse#?

You absolutely would have done better privately. You basically earn little to no interest over your whole career on what you put into social security. It’s a scam.

“Do you really think nobody has thought of this before?”
I can absolutely guarantee the OP that he is not the first nor will he be the last to ponder whether or not getting a SSN is “required”. The fact that this would require a lawsuit to resolve should answer that pretty definitively

I’m ok with that

I’m not a Louisiana guy. However, if he actually has a lawyer, I assume his lawyer has advised him of these issues and the costs of a lawsuit against the state on a matter of principle. That lawyer, if he is competent, also required a hefty retainer.

Exactly. Younger me had little financial discipline. I’m fortunate that as I aged I become much smarter with my money. Now I am able to finagle my income in retirement to live the lifestyle of my choice and decide what I want my income to be in retirement.
