Is code the same as number, like in the US? :) - cristalino, Jun 14, 2011

Mexicans do not have a social security number as you know it in the U.S.

We have an R.F.C. (federal registry of contributors) code if we pay taxes.

Workers have a "Seguro Social" number when they are working for a person or a company. This number may change as their employment changes. It permits them to access health and other government services ( such as the deposit to their pension) as paid for by their employer (includes the contribution of the worker).

"Seguro Social" is one of the main national systems of health and pension services in Mexico

"código"... interesting... all my American life and not once uttered in my presence! je je - cristalino, Jun 14, 2011
Chris the "codigo" is the law, - pacofinkler, Jun 14, 2011
Gfreed: in your links, "código" equals " codification of the law". Seguridad Social is what is adressed in the law. - Agora, Jun 14, 2011

I remember working with credit, this question often came up. The most simple way to ask and be understood clearly is, "¿cual es su/ tu (pronoun depends on situation) social?
