Why do I need social security and bank balance to apply for a passport?

When applying for a passport, a social security record can be used to prove the applicant's identity and place of residence, as well as to show his or her participation in the national social welfare system. Bank current can prove the applicant's economic strength and financial status, with a certain degree of credibility and reliability. In addition, bank current can also reflect the applicant's spending habits and lifestyle, which is helpful to the approval authority for risk assessment and audit judgment.

In addition to social security and bank current, it is also necessary to provide valid proof of identity, photos and other personal information.
