Disclosure of the Social Security Number (SSN) is voluntary and is requested for the purpose of accurate identification. Failure to disclose the SSN will not affect participation in this program. A hard copy of the SSN cannot be required.
The SSN for the caretaker and for each child requesting Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP) benefits may be provided by the caretaker.
If a caretaker or child does not have a SSN when application for CCAP is made, the eligibility worker may assist the family in the application process for a SSN if they choose to apply for a SSN.
In situations where there is a discrepancy (i.e. duplicate numbers for the same individual, the same number for two different individuals, etc), a copy of the SSN card may be requested but cannot be required.
