Social Security Number Traces

The Social Security Number Verification will flag bogus social security numbers used by individuals by automatically validating and detecting if the Social Security Number (SSN) has never been issued, or has been used in a Death Claim File.

You can also learn the day the SSN was issued, along with the month and year it was issued. As an example: If the subject provides you their name and SSN and after a Social Security Number Trace it has been determined that the subject’s SSN was just issued in 2001. Also the subject claims he or she is a U.S native and their year of birth is 1974. You now have serious questions why the subject is using a SSN issued in 2001 if they were born 27 years earlier.

Another example: If the subject provides you their name and SSN and after the search it has been determined that the subject’s social security number was used in a death claim file. You now have serious questions why the subject is using a SSN used in a death claim file.

A third example: If the subject provides you their name, SSN and date of birth (dob) and you conduct a search. After the search is conducted it has been determined that the subject’s dob is 1974 yet the subject indicates they were born in 1970. Also their social security number was issued in Florida, with Florida address history, and yet the subject indicates they are a Texas native and has never lived in another state. You now have serious questions why the subject is using a different dob and has a SSN and address history in another state when they claim they never lived there.

The typical Social Security Number Verification Report contains:

  • Individual’s name
  • Subject’s address information
  • Aliases
  • Possible month and year of date of birth
  • Addresses and names of others using SSN
  • Previous addresses
  • State of Issuance of the Social Security Number
  • Year, Month and Day of Issuance of the Social Security Number
