The Consent Based Social Security Number Verification tool works to validate if an SSN holder’s information matches social security records, the agency said Friday.
The system will require the SSN holder to provide a written and signed consent to show social security information. In addition, the platform will provide a notification if the SSN holder is deceased.

SSA intends to launch eCBSV in June 2020 with further plans to expand the user count within six months.
