A Social Security Number Trace is the foundation of any solid criminal search. The information returned in the trace can be used to develop additional county criminal searches based on the addresses associated with the candidate’s social security number. The trace will also identify alias names associated with the candidate’s social security number so criminal searches can be run against them. As criminal searches are based on name and date of birth, and not social security number, running based on alias names can be key to ensuring your search is as thorough as possible.

The SSN Trace utilizes 1000s of different sources of information, such as utility bills, car registrations, rental agreements, etc. However, the vast majority of the information comes from what are called "credit headers.” Basically, whenever a person applies for a credit card or a loan or pays a utility bill, credit headers keep track of the SSN used, as well as the names and address histories attached to it.

The SSN Trace is primarily used as a record locator device; therefore, no employment decisions should be made on the results of this check. Consultation with qualified legal counsel is recommended for all employment law matters.

Q: How far back is address history reported on the Social Security Number Trace?
A: Address history is provided for the past 30 years, when and where available.
Q: Does the Social Security Number Trace search the SSA's Death Master File?
A: Yes. A search of the Death Master File can help determine if a deceased person’s identity is being used.
Q: Does the Social Security Number Trace verify that the number belongs to the candidate?
A: No, the Social Security Number Trace only searches the database for the social security number. In order to verify the information matches what is on record with the SSA, you will need to order a Consent Based Social Security Verification (CBSV) which Info Cubic will process with the Social Security Administration.
Q: What are “aliases”, “AKAs”, or “Name Variations”?
A: The Social Security Number Trace will return any unique jurisdictions and names associated with the candidate’s social security number. Info Cubic clients can have their account set up to automatically process criminal searches on alias names that are returned, which is best practice as criminal records are stored by name and date of birth.
