The Social Security Number Guide helps validate a Social Security Number (SSN). The SSN has become the standard identifier on a wide variety of records - employment records, tax forms, credit reports, criminal history, driver licenses and workers' compensation files. Having a valid SSN will help get the most accurate background reports; ordering records with an invalid SSN can produce false no hits.
