If you don’t have a Social Security number, you must verify your Washington residence address before you can finish applying for your license, photo instruction permit, or ID card.

If you live in WA, this should be easy for you.

School records should work.

1. Proof of identity
What you’ll need
If you’re under 18 years:
Show us 1 of the options from the list below:
Option 1: 1 “Stand-alone Document”
Option 2: 2 “A-List Documents”
Option 3: 1 “A-List Document” and 2 “B-List Documents”
Option 4: At least 4 “B-List Documents”, including:
1 from the list that has your name and date of birth, and
1 that has your name and signature.
Option 5: A completed Parental Authorization Affidavit.
Your parent/guardian must come with you to sign the affidavit.
Before signing the affidavit, your parent/guardian must show us all of the following:
All documents required to prove their identity. (Their Washington state driver license or U.S. passport.)
Proof that they’re your parent/guardian. (Your certified birth certificate, adoption papers, or a school transcript with their name on it.)
If your last name is different than your parent’s or guardian’s, or if their proof of identity is an out-of-state driver license and they don’t have a Social Security number, we’ll require more documents (A divorce decree or marriage certificate).

Without SSN, he need to show proof of residence. School transcript should work. If he can't obtain any docs from school, tell him to open a bank account. They take bank statement as a proof of residence too.

You have to sign a declaration and show proof of residence if you don't have an SSN.

Your cousin is good since his father has a WA license.

ID should be fine. If he is worry, tell him to bring a divorce decree or marriage certificate with him.
