I ordered mine online and it came fairly quickly. Much better than going to the field office and waiting at least an hour for assistance, which I know first hand, since I am there often due to issues with my disability.
Yes. They will take down info and mail you the card. You won't be able to get it that day. Or you can put in your several IDs online, and they will mail it. Go to SSA.gov or something like that.
