Is Triple Zero (000) A Legal Number?
I use to work at the Federal Courthouse in Nashville. one day, i asked my friend at the Internal Revenue Service, if triple zero was an acceptable number for the IRS. my friend said no, that if someone came in and gave their Social Security number as 000–00-000, it would not be accepted as legal. how can this be, when i see Kentucky license plates with 000 on them all the time?

Kentucky.
Need I say more?
Apples and oranges. What makes you think the two numbers have anything in common?
As long as it is in conjunction with other numbers, I’m fairly positive it is a legal number.
Ex: 543–000-286 vs. 000–000-000
More than one zero, unless preceeded by a whole number such as 1, is merely redundant. Zero is zero, no matter how many times you write it out.
What do you mean a “legal” number? That means nothing.
License plates and Social Security Numbers are two entirely different things. Additionally, one is federally issued, the others state issued. I’ve seen a NH license plate with three zeros (but also with three letters).
its 911 in australia i’ve never seen it used anywhere else
@trailsillustrated Also used in some provinces in Philippines. You could grow old and gray waiting for a constable to show up though.
The first three digits of a social security number designated the state of origin.
License plates, at least in Kentucky, are a sequence of alphanumeric characters. In other words, a series could be AAA999, AAB000, AAB001, AAB002, etc. Kentucky plates were first sequences Number, Number, Number, Letter, Letter, Letter, but that maxed out and they moved on to the reverse, with letters coming first.
The first three digits of a social security number indicate the State or Territory or Commonwealth where the card was issued. Example: all 099-xx-xxxx were issued in New York at some point or other.
The second two digits are consecutive identifiers. The earliest cards issued had 01–09 in the second position but odd numbers only. After these first five odd numbers were depleted they begain issuing even numbers starting with 10 and ending with 98.
The last grouping is a consecutive number based on cards issued.
There is much more to this, this is simply a general summary.
