A: You can try to bring something official with his social security number on it and see what the trustee says, but very likely they will adjourn the meeting to give him time to get another card. However, you should still show up, otherwise, the trustee might file a motion to dismiss your bankruptcy case.

A: Any government issued document that has a Social Security number on it. Military ID comes to mind. The problem is that it cannot be something you issued or your employer issued such as a W-2. Hope you can find it or try to go to Social Security office in the morning if the hearing is later in the day.
