I am a newbie and just was hired by a company for IC position. I received a packet of paper work to fill out and they need two forms of ID. They stated that a copy of my drivers license and social security card would do. Is this normal to give this information out to companies. I sort of feel reluctant, but I guess they need to know who I am, right?
