And if you don't have your SS# on your DL, or show your SS card, they will
have you sign a W-9 form, on which you confirm your SS# to be correct under
penalty of perjury.
Some casinos just do this once each year, and keep the form on file. Others
do it each day you hit a taxable jackpot.
And I was asked for my SS card, just two days ago, after hitting a jackpot.
The floor person said they were supposed to ask.

Maybe years ago casinos might have asked to see a SS card, but not now
(at least not any of the casinos I visit), and I get plenty of
taxables. Many people no longer carry their SS cards, so casinos would
be fighting a losing battle if they required people to show their SS
cards if they hit a taxable jackpot. They do require a valid photo ID,
and they typically ask for your SS# so they can fill in the W2-G form.
