I’m not sure I ever saw a check with a social security number on it, but the rest of this is absolutely true
Was a common practice for me until my mid-20's. If it wasn't pre-printed on then, cashiers would ask what it was and write it in the check.
I just burned some old ones I found in an old file cabinet the other day. I don’t think I ever had them myself, but I l remember a teller asking whether I wanted to include it.
