Question
Getting car insurance without a social security number
My friend from England need insurance. How can she get insurance without a US license and no SSN?
Answer
Not all insurance companies require you to have an SSN when shopping for car insurance. The tricky aspect has to do with not having a drivers license. While some companies will insure a driver with a foreign license, they might charge more for the perceived risk your friend presents.
