The Social Security Administration (SSA) will offer digital access to Social Security Numbers (SSN), providing a secure alternative to physical cards. Beneficiaries can access their SSN via mobile devices for non-Social Security related purposes.
Benefits:
- Convenient SSN display for users who misplace their cards.
- Reduced need for in-person visits or mail delays.
- Minimized risks of lost or stolen cards.
Acting Commissioner Lee Dudek emphasized that this initiative enhances service efficiency and security. The digital option will be available starting this summer.
