Mine did in the 1970s when opening a bank account in my name.  
Actually, I think it was my grandparents opening an account in my 
name, but I think my parents had to submit the application.  I had 
actually had other bank accounts going back to the 1960s with no SS#, 
so I think the requirement of having one for every bank account was 
later than my earliest accounts.
