SSNUSA -
In Brief: On
August 14th, 1935 as President Roosevelt
signed the original Social Security Act.
"This
social security measure gives at least some
protection to thirty millions of our citizens
who will reap direct benefits through
unemployment compensation, through old-age
pensions and through increased services for the
protection of children and the prevention of ill
health." To keep
track of the millions of people eligible for
these benefits the Social Security Number was
invented. Originally intended to serve the limited purpose of
enrolling persons covered by the original Social
Security Act, this mammoth government
insurance program needed a mechanism to
efficiently and accurately segregate the
earnings, payments and benefits of millions of
individuals. The social security numbering
system was designed to do just that. Its unique nine-digit
format allows for individual registration of
nearly one billion persons. Since issuance of
the first SSN in 1936, some 300 million other
numbers have been given out. However,
the SSN has come to play a far bigger role than
its creators could have ever envisioned. From
job applications to tax returns, to driver
licenses, to educational records, the SSN has
become that standard identifier on a wide
variety of records. Designed
simply as a lifelong unique identity number to
track payments into the Social Security Program,
the use of the SSN has expanded . In 1961 it was
adopted as the federal employee identifier, and
by the IRS as the official taxpayer ID in 1962.
Government agencies are bound by the
restrictions of the Privacy Act of 1974.
But businesses, especially banks and credit card
grantors, and private entities, such as
universities and hospitals are not bound by any
such restrictions, and now your SSN can appear
on licenses, mailing labels and academic
reports. It has become the de facto identifying
number that we all carry with us through life.
The
role that the SSN has come to occupy is
understandable. There is no more widely held
identifying number in the country. Most people
acquire an SSN at an early age, certainly by the
time they enter the workforce. And unlike
names and addresses, a person's SSN cannot be
duplicated or changed. An SSN once issued is
yours to keep, it never changes. Utility
companies, credit card grantors, banks and a
host of other private entities all require a
Social Security Number before they will open new
accounts. This means that searching by SSN
is by far and away the most powerful search in
existence. The three major credit bureaus,
Trans-Union, Experian (formerly TRW) and Equifax
record the SSN, along with an individual's
identifying information in the top portion or
"header" of credit reports.
Unlike the full credit report itself, this
information is made freely available and the
subject is never notified that this information
has been accessed. This
report will return all current and reported
addresses for the individual and possible listed
phone numbers for the last 7-10 years. Also
if the subject tries to use an SSN or an alias
(including maiden and married names) that is
different from their own, then it is usually
flagged and reported. The
validity and date of issuance of the SSN is
reported, and if the subject is trying to use an
SSN that was issued in a death claim file, then
this will show up too. |
