Social Security Numbers: Coordinated Approach to SSN Data Could Help Reduce Unauthorized Work
To lawfully work in the United States, individuals must have a
valid Social Security number (SSN) and, if they are not citizens,
authorization to work from the Department of Homeland Security
(DHS). Noncitizens seeking work must provide both an SSN and
evidence of work authorization to their employer. Yet individuals
without these required authorizations have gained employment with
false information. How these instances of unauthorized work can
be identified or prevented challenges the federal agencies
involved. Congress asked GAO to discuss how federal agencies can
better share reported earnings data to identify unauthorized
work. Specifically, this testimony addresses two issues: (1) the
Social Security data that could help identify unauthorized
employment and (2) coordination among certain federal agencies to
improve the accuracy and usefulness of such data.
