Why do I have to provide my social security number?

Modified on Fri, 25 Oct, 2024 at 4:09 PM

Your social security number (SSN) is a unique identifier necessary to conduct a thorough and accurate search.  Providing your SSN prevents erroneous information from appearing on your completed background screen report. The social security number must be provided in order to provide accurate results.  If a social security number is not provided, we cannot guarantee a full and accurate background check.  


If you are concerned with security, please review our Privacy Policy.  


If you still do not wish to provide a social security number, please contact the school district/employer with your concern.  It will be their decision as to if they will allow the background check to proceed without this information.
