Social Security Numbers are only issued 'once, they are not reused.'

This is incorrect. SS numbers are reused after so many years after the death of the original user.

Q20: Are Social Security numbers reused after a person dies?

A: No. We do not reassign a Social Security number (SSN) after the number holder’s death. Even though we have issued over 453 million SSNs so far, and we assign about 5 and one-half million new numbers a year, the current numbering system will provide us with enough new numbers for several generations into the future with no changes in the numbering system.

As a former Payroll Supervisor & a life long bookkeeper, I will strongly disagree with you on that statement.

I have been told all of my life -—76 now-—that Social Security numbers are NEVER ‘reused’. That is the one connection that anyone searching records can depend on for accurate information.
