Real certificates!

I requested a certificate without my social security number and the one they
sent had a new date on it. Now when I go to rent a plane I am asked if I
just recently passed my checkride.

The original date of issue cannot be placed on a replacement certificate.
Expired certificates cannot be issued; however, an expired CFI letter can
be
requested at no charge.

Not a BIG deal,,, but I would kind of like having the original date on
it...
But then again, when I eventually get my instrument rating they will
probably issue a new certificate with the date that I upgraded the
certificate... right????

so tell them no.. it's a re-issue to clear the SSAN and offer your logbook
if they request it.,
