 permit is expired, suspended, revoked or surrendered, OR  SUCH  PERSON'S
 AUTHORIZED  REPRESENTATIVE, may make application to the commissioner for
 the issuance of an identification card. The  commissioner  shall  ensure

   (i) The commissioner shall upon submission of an appropriate  applica-
 tion,  upon payment of the prescribed fee, and upon being satisfied that

 requirements set forth in subdivision two of this section, issue to such
 applicant  OR SUCH APPLICANT'S AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE a nontransfera-
 ble identification card.   In  addition,  the  commissioner  also  shall
 require  that an applicant for an identification card or renewal thereof
 provide his or  her  social  security  number.  The  commissioner  shall
 provide  space  so  that  an  applicant may request a notation upon such
 identification card that he or she is a veteran  of  the  United  States
