My sitters husband just lost his job at the furniture wharehouse where he worked. He has a good Social Security Number but not the actual card. He's afraid to apply for it because he had submited his imigration papers and got denied. Would he still be able to obtain his S.S. card to work?

I assume from your title question that he is illegal. If that is the case then NO he is not eligible for a SSN, as he has no rights to work or live in the USA.
Quote" He has a good Social Security Number but not the actual card."
A. If the number was given to him through the proper means then what is the problem? IS he using a stolen SSN?
"He's afraid to apply for it because he had submitted his immigration papers and got denied".
A. If he has been denied permission to work/live then he can not have a SSN. He will be deported
Would he still be able to obtain his S.S. card to work?
A.See above answer
To 'Charlie' - All LEGAL immigrants who have work authorization are allowed to apply for a SSN. As your answer says only US citizen can have one, which is not the case. For LEGAL immigrants who are on a dependent visa they use ITIN for filing their taxes etc.

If he was denied immigration papers then he would be illegal. To try and obtain a social security number will get him deported.
"He has a good social security number" you mean one that was stollen and belongs to someone else?
Sounds like he needs to go home and get a job at a furniture warehouse there... sitter can go with him.

If he is not a U.S. citizen, he cannot have a social security number or card. That number he has cannot possibly be legal. This is the big problem for illegal immigrants. many of them use false S.S. numbers and it takes a while before they get caught. Some use fake S.S.cards. But the fact is, only citizens can legally have a S.S. card and number.

Hell YES! America is FREE. We have no one to enforce our immigration laws. So, come one, come all. Just tell them your an illegal alien and you will have all that you desire put at your feet: free schools, heath care and much, much more. Not to worry the generous tax payers will foot the bills for you and all of your friends and family. We Americans clearly don't value our language, borders or culture. It's all yours for the taking. So, come on in!
