Just got my Employment authorization card, but that the only id I have, can I work with that alone?

Question

I don't have a California I.D, I lost my social security card (which said not valid without INS authorization,) i just have a copy of it in my wallet. My passport is expired ( lucky me right?)

so again, can I work if I just show my Empl. Auth.crd.

Answer 1

To my understanding the social security number is necessary to work legally in the US. , because work means taxes as well , but i assume that having the number is good .
