I have no state ID (and I never have had a driver's license) nor do I have a Social Security card. I need one to get the other, so I'm feeling a bit stuck. How do I go about obtaining both?

Well, what do you have? Do you have your birth certificate? A passport? Any kind of government issued ID (military ID, etc)? Do you have a SSN (even though you don't have the SS card)?
I do have a birth certificate, yes. I don't have any photo ID of any sort. I have the number memorised.

That's for a REAL ID compliant ID. I believe Illinois will still issue a non-REAL ID compliant license/id.Here are the requirements in Illinois: Real ID FAQ
What you need and what is available also depends on the state. For example, certain states don't even require you to be a legal citizen, such as New York which in 2019 provided illegal / undocumented immigrants with the ability to obtain a New York State driver's license - also known as New York's Green Light Law for driver's licenses.
Yes, that's true. At this point I've been thinking Real ID only given how New York City has been aggressively marketing them - I live within reasonably close proximity to 3 airports!That's for a REAL ID compliant ID. I believe Illinois will still issue a non-REAL ID compliant license/id.
