Hi,

I am h1B visa; in my 3-year extension; so, my daughter are H4 visa-holder, so she is not eligible for Social Security number.

She is 17 and 12-grader, she wants to get a health career, so she is taken health-related courses in high school, one of these can let her be a Certified Nurse Assistant (CNA) when she finish the school. The problem is that in order she can take that course she should be registered by the Texas Department of Health / Nurse Aide Program, and they ask for SSN, without it she can get in.
I think, It's not fair, she is a good student and get good grades, and now we feel frustrated.
Is there any option to whom don't have SSN?

We had the same problem with our town college when she applied to take an examen to get dual-credit courses, but they understood and gave her a number instead the SSN in order she can take the test.

Thanks for any suggestion and help.

can she ask the school or TDH for a letter to social security administration, giving reasons why she needs a SSN
 
The purpose of SSN requirement is to avoid candidates those are not GC or US citizens for that program.

By law they are correct.
Its primary purpose is tracking working individuals for taxation purposes and to track Social Security benefits. However, in recent years, the SSN has become a de facto national identification number, even though it is not supposed to be used as a form of identification. SSNs are used for employee files, medical records, health insurance accounts, credit and banking accounts, university ID cards, and many other purposes.
