Privacy Act Statement
Collection and Use of Personal Information
Sections 205 and 702 of the Social Security Act, as amended, allow us to collect this
information. Furnishing us this information is voluntary. However, failing to provide all or part
of the information may prevent us from assigning you a Social Security number and issuing you
a new or replacement Social Security card.
We will use the information you provide to issue you a replacement Social Security card. We
may also share your information for the following purposes, called routine uses:
•

To Federal, State, and local entities to assist them with administering income
maintenance and health maintenance programs, when a Federal statute authorizes
them to use the Social Security number; and

•

To student volunteers, persons working under a personal services contract, and others
when they need access to information in our records in order to perform their assigned
agency duties.

In addition, we may share this information in accordance with the Privacy Act and other Federal
laws. For example, where authorized, we may use and disclose this information in computer
matching programs, in which our records are compared with other records to establish or verify
a person’s eligibility for Federal benefit programs and for repayment of incorrect or delinquent
debts under these programs.
A list of additional routine uses is available in our Privacy Act System of Records Notices (SORN)
60-0058, entitled Master Files of Social Security Number (SSN) Holders and SSN Applications, as
published in the Federal Register (FR) on December 29, 2010, at 75 FR 82121, and 60-0373,
entitled Repository of Electronic Authentication Data Master File, as published in the FR on
December 19, 2010, at 75 FR 79065. Additional information, and a full listing of all of our
SORNs, is available on our website at www.ssa.gov/privacy.
