Overview
There are two Internet verification options you can use to
verify that your employee names and Social Security
numbers match Social Security's records. You can:
Verify up to 10 names and SSNs (per screen) online
and receive immediate results. This option is ideal to
verify new hires.
Upload overnight files of up to 250,000 names and
SSNs and usually receive results the next
government business day. This option is ideal if you
want to verify an entire payroll database or if you hire
a large number of workers at a time.
