SSN Verification Check
Verify your social security number and validate your identity
What is a SSN Verification Check?
An SSN verification is a search of more than 190 million consumer records contained in the credit bureau files. The social security number search or verification warns when a Social Security number may never have been issued, may have been issued to a person who has been reported deceased, currently being used by other individuals (lists up to four names using the number) or has been issued so recently that the number may belong to a child.
Can I look up my Social Security number online?
You can perform an online search, however, you will need to go through a qualified company that is authorized to perform this search. A Consumer Reporting Agency, (CRA) is an authorized provider of this information.
Who would ask you to validate your social security number?
A potential employer/Landlord or an organization pulling your credit may want to perform a Social Security Validation.
How does SSN Fraud Occur?
Usually, individuals who do not have a valid Social Security Number (SSN) will purchase a stolen SSN either on the street or from an organized crime ring that provides fake identifications or unauthorized government documentation.
Can employers verify SSN?
Yes, in fact, an additional feature of the Social Security Number verification is the reporting of any addresses associated with the Social Security Number for credit application purposes. Many employers utilize this information to determine if the applicant as truthfully supplied all relevant residential address history on the employment application. Addresses revealed by the Social Security Number verification, but not supplied by an applicant, may be used to expand a criminal record search. These undisclosed addresses may lead to a criminal conviction record the applicant has attempted to shield from a prospective employer.
What to do if SSN fails to verify?
If your personal Social Security Number fails to verify, either it has been incorrectly entered or you will need to contact the Social Security Administration to determine if there is a problem with your government-issued Social Security Number.
How long does it take to verify SSN?
In most cases, this is an instant search returned within a few seconds of ordering the search.
Do banks verify SSN?
Only valid Social Security Numbers (SSN) or Federal Employer Identification Numbers (FEIN) are generally required to set up a bank account.
