I am a US born, living in Australia. Can I apply for US social security number, drivers lisence, bank account?



I want to do business with american government and possibly try to open up a US bank account.
I have dual citizenship with australia, can I apply for a social security number/ drivers lisence or any bank accounts?
My Birth Cert. is for Houston texas.
Does this mean I can also vote in US even though I am living in Australia? I am confused.

If your birth certificate indicates you were born in the United States, you can apply for a Social Security Number. The SSN is used to identify individuals for income tax purposes.

You can use the SSN to get an account in an American bank. You will not be able to get a US drivers license unless you establish a residence in the US. You cannot register to vote in the US unless you establish a residence in the United States.
I am not up to snuff on dual citizenship laws in America.
The U.S. supposedly doesn't recognize dual citizenships, but as long as you haven't renounced yours and are of age, you should be able to affirm it if you haven't waited too long.
Call U.S. Immigration and ask them, or the local U.S. Embassy would be even better.
Contact the United States' State Department. I suspect that you would have to make a physical appearance to apply for a Social Security card and for a bank account. With SS, you will have to be able to verify who you are. Then you will have to pay US income tax.
Drivers' licenses are issued by individual states. Since you do not live in a state, you cannot establish residency and cannot get a license.
I assume you are an adult. If so and U.S. born you should have SS number. You are supposed to get one before 1 yr. old. But as a citizen you can get one issued with proof of U.S. birth. You may have to appear in person on U.S. soil. An embasy or consulate ( considered U.S. soil ) should be able to help you. This is one of their jobs. They do this for children of U.S. citizens born overseas all of the time. Bank account, no problem. Drivers license as stated is by State.
As for voting I'm not sure. Did a quick search but didn't find the relevant info. I thought there was a requirement of physical presence in the U.S.A. within a specified time period. The embasy or consulte can answer this as well. My personal opinion though is that if you do not intend to particpate fully as a citizen you should not vote regardless of legal right to do so.
You say you have dual citizenship. Do you have 2 passports also? I don't understand the others answer about the USA not recognizing dual ones for one in our family has 2.
Why would you want to vote here when you have been gone so long and are not really affected to the outcome of them? To get your SS # you would just need birth certificate and perhaps another form of ID. To open a bank account you would have also need of some form of ID. For the drivers license I don't think it will be possible though. You have to take a written test, a drivers test and before you can do that you have to show proof of where you live (in state), a state car tag on the car for the drive test, and proof of insurance. In Indiana I even had to have my car titled in that state to get my tag and then drivers license.
