Consent Based Social Security Number 

Verification Service (CBSV)—0960– 

0760 

The Social Security Administration 

(SSA) is hereby giving notice that 

effective October 1, 2009, the 

transaction fee for SSA’s CBSV service 

will increase to $5.00 per transaction. 

CBSV is a fee-based service that 

provides instant, automated Social 

Security number (SSN) verification to 

private businesses and government 

agencies who obtain a valid, signed 

consent form from the SSN holder. 

These parties may only use verification 

results for the reason that the number 

holder specifies on the consent form. 

CBSV can easily handle large volume 

requests and is currently open for 

enrollment. 

We charge a fee to cover the cost of 

providing this service. To use CBSV, 

companies must pay a one-time, nonrefundable enrollment fee of $5,000 and 

a transaction fee per SSN verification 

request. The transaction fee is presently 

56 cents based on our assumption that 

we would receive 5.7 million SSN 

verification requests annually. That 

volume, however, did not materialize, 

and we now estimate receiving 1 

million requests. Effective October 1, 

2009, the transaction fee will increase to 

$5.00 due to significantly fewer 

requests. Based on the revised estimate 

of 1 million annual transactions, this 

adjustment is necessary to recover our 

costs to develop and operate the system. 

Periodically, we will recalculate CBSV 

operational costs, review the number of 

transactions, and adjust the transaction 

fee as needed. We will notify 

subscribers in writing of any change in 

the transaction fee.
