1000.1 Overview
All household members applying for 3SVT must provide their SSN . A household member with more than one SSN must provide all of them. If a household member does not have an SSN, they must apply for one before approval.
Exception : See Newborn and Religious Beliefs
Providing the SSN is voluntary, however, failure to provide or apply for an SSN without good cause will result in ineligibility for that person.
Note : The 3SVT application cannot be delayed pending the verification of an SSN by SSA. The person is allowed to participate pending verification.
