Social Security Number (SSN) Verification Services

Has your candidate provided a valid Social Security number (SSN)? Our Consent Based SSN Verification (CBSV) provides instant verification of a SSN directly through the Social Security Administration (SSA). Consent Based SSN Verifications help you verify whether a name and SSN combination match and are valid.

Your candidate’s name and SSN are verified against SSA’s Master File of Social Security Numbers to determine if the data does or does not match. And we can also use a date of birth and gender code to help find a match.

NOTE: The SSA’s verification of an SSN does not provide proof or confirmation of identity. CBSV provides only a “yes” or “no” verification of whether the SSN was checked against the SSA’s records. It does not verify employment eligibility or interface with the Department of Homeland Security verification system, and it will not satisfy I-9 and E-Verify requirements.

Benefits to employers include:

Most reliable Social Security number (SSN) based search matching name, SSN and DOB with Social Security Administration (SSA) records
Exclusive SSN verification provided by the SSA
Pre-employment search can prevent a SSA “no match” letter during the E-Verify process

CBSV is the only Social Security number (SSN) verification that validates a SSN with the Social Security Administration. This search does not provide address history and names associated with a SSN like the ID Trace search.

No. The CBSV provides only a “yes” or “no” verification of whether the Social Security number (SSN) matched with the Social Security Administration’s records. It does not certify that the SSN presented by the candidate belongs to that individual.

CBSV does not verify employment eligibility or interface with the Department of Homeland Security verification system. CBSV only provides Social Security number confirmation from the Social Security Administration. It will not satisfy I-9 and E-Verify requirements.
