I Was Told I'm Not a U.S. Citizen - My Panic to Prove My Identity
Briefly

A Reddit user experienced a alarming situation when trying to obtain a replacement Social Security card and received a message stating he was not a U.S. citizen. Given that his parents became citizens only in the 1980s and come from a currently unfriendly country, he was understandably worried. However, as he was born in the U.S., he holds valid documentation, including a birth certificate and U.S. passport, confirming his citizenship. The advice is to visit a Social Security office to resolve the issue attributed potentially to administrative errors.
Given that there's no real question about his valid citizenship status, the poster's problems with the Social Security website likely stem from administrative errors.
He should gather his documents showing his citizenship status and visit a local Social Security office to resolve the issue.
