agree  xxxPFB: Au RU, DSS = Dpt of Social Security, donc effectivement, il pourrait bien s'agir d'une carte d'assuré social/de Sécurité sociale ou doc de ce type.

  -> Merci, Philippe. I thought about it too, but looking on the web, that department does not seem to exist anymore. Maybe people are still informally using the term.

agree  Myriam Dupouy: // Yep... Great minds think alike ! (auto-largage de fleurs ;o)

  -> Thank you, Myriam! I just see that you posted a similar suggestion in your comment above.

agree  Carole Paquis: D'accord pour cette traduction, mais il ne s'agit pas de documents relatifs à la santé mais aux services sociaux, genre RMI...qui en France, je crois, est géré par la CAF ? social security = welfare en GB
