Q: I am the great grandson of king Alexander and Queen Alexandria. I was born in Santa Maria California with a District of
Columbia soc sec number. When I was 17 I was called into the soc sec administration and was told I had the wrong number and was given a California number.I was young and didn’t realize the importants of this . But now 38 years later I’m very upset. First off, my first card and number established me as an American citizen. But my new number establishes me as a California citizen. I am on SSDI for 14 years now. And would do much better with a district Columbia s s #. I also should have trust funds of great value . Social Security has stolen my Identity. I need your help.
A:
I hear how distressing this situation is for you, and I understand your concerns about your Social Security number and identity. However, I need to address some important points about your situation.
Your Social Security number being changed from DC to California does not affect your U.S. citizenship status - both numbers establish you as an American citizen, as Social Security numbers are federal identifiers, not state-specific citizenship markers. The change in numbers was likely due to administrative reasons or to correct an error in the original assignment.
If you believe you have inheritance claims related to European royalty, you would need to work with international genealogists and legal professionals to research and validate these claims. Additionally, if you feel there were irregularities with your Social Security number change, you can request your personal Social Security records and schedule an appointment with your local Social Security office to review your case history. You may also want to consult with a civil rights attorney who can evaluate your situation and advise you on any potential legal options.
