Definition | The eligible individual's social security number. For newborns when value is unknown it is not required. For SSN states, in instances where the social security number is not known and a temporary MSIS Identification Number is used, the MSIS Identification Number field should be populated with the temporary MSIS Identification Number and the SSN field should be space-filled, or blank. When the SSN becomes known, the MSIS Identification Number field should continue to be populated with the temporary MSIS Identification Number and the SSN field should be populated with the newly acquired SSN for at least one monthly submission of the Eligible File so that T-MSIS can associated the temporary MSIS Identification Number and the social security number. |
