President Roosevelt

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.
History of the SSN

Card Design

Fred Happel of Albany, N.Y. designed the original Social Security card back in 1936. He was commissioned by the Social Security Board to submit three designs, one of which was ultimately selected. Mr. Happel was paid $60 for his work.

Social Security Number

The Social Security Act did not specify the use of numbered cards, but it did call for the formation of a record keeping plan. The SSN was assigned nine digits, an area number, a group number and a serial number. This 123-45-6789 format was designed for the simple record card filing systems of the day.
            

The SSN Today

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.

he Social Security Number (SSN) was created in the 1930's 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.
         
owever, 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.
         
he 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.

Searching on the Social Security Number

tility 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.

his report will return all current and reported addresses for the individual and possible listed phone numbers for the last 7-10 years. Often a date of birth (DOB) is also returned.  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.

he 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.  If requested we can also provide the addresses and listed phone numbers of the neighbors for each of the addresses returned in the report.

Should I Give My SSN Number To Others?

If a business or other enterprise asks you for your Social Security number, you can refuse to give it to them. However, that may mean doing without the purchase or service for which your number was requested. For example, utility companies and other services ask for a Social Security number, but do not need it; they can do a credit check or identify the person in their records by alternative means.

Giving your number is voluntary, even when you are asked for the number directly. If requested, you should ask why your number is needed, how your number will be used, what law requires you to give your number and what the consequences are if you refuse. The answers to these questions can help you decide if you want to give your Social Security number. The decision is yours.
