SSN Validation
How do you know
if the Social Security Numbers (SSN) in your files
are accurate? In many data processing systems (Personnel,
Payroll
Pre-employment, Financial, etc.), only a
numeric authentication of the SSN is performed. When
SSNs are not properly validated, loss of time, embarrassment,
posting errors, and serious financial loss can occur.
COMSERV pioneered the Social Security Number Validation
System (SSNDTECT) to complement the Death Information
System (DIS) and specifically address these types
of issues by providing a simple and efficient method
for SSN validation. SSNDTECT can help companies determine
if SSNs provided by potential employees are legitimate,
and help eliminate the fraudulent or improper use
of SSNs. Click here to see why publicly available,
or some other SSN validation resource may be inadequate.
For example, if a new employee is hired and his
or her SSN was listed on the employment forms or
keyed into a payroll system incorrectly, this erroneous
SSN could be reported over several pay periods to
various government agencies before being discovered.
This error would ultimately involve numerous hours
for both the employee and personnel office to work
with the various agencies to correct the mistake.
Similar problems would result with businesses that
access records using the customer's SSN.
