Hi Jackrue, thank you for posting in Apple Support Communities.

Just to advise that the iPad Sim Card cannot be used for mobile calls as they are data only cards.

However to make and receive calls on your iPad is a two step process, by firstly setting up Call Forwarding on your iPhone and secondly changing some Settings in your iPad. Please note that both devices must be signed into the same AppleID.

The following link explains in more detail the process:
