The right order — for your state

The SSA-vs-DMV order is state law, not folklore. Your list encodes your state's actual sequence, with the why on every step.

The uncovered half

Employer payroll, 401(k), professional licenses, TSA PreCheck, insurance, the deed — the steps every kit skips are the ones that surface two years later.

Privacy that's structural

Forms fill on your device with in-browser code. We can't leak what we never receive — no other kit can say that.
