Just curious, what can an average person find out about someone if they have their social security number?
I saw a space for me to fill it in on a recent job application. Obviously they can do a criminal check, but what else would they see?

you can run backgroundchecks based on your name, no need for a SSN

- yes, and if there are other people with your name, and hometown, this gets complicatedvaxorcist

They want to see if you're an american citizen.
- you don't need to be a citizen to have a ss. I had it when I was on a student visaMiguex

are they informing you that's what they'll be doing? i usually don't put it in if they don't tell me what it's for. maybe they're stealing your identity.

Is there anything you can find out without paying?

I think it's just so you are on the system for payments / tax purposes.

They can open bank accounts/credit cards in your name conceivably.
