Handling of a missing SSN - The HUD, USDA and PHA funding programs handle alternate numbers in the same way. Generally a Social Security Number (SSN) is required for most household members; but if a member is sent on a certification transmission for the first time with out an SSN; TRACS, MINC or PIC will assign an alternate number to be used on subsequent transmissions to that agency. This Alternate ID is communicated back to you through TRACS, MINC or PIC messages.
Select the SSN Exception option if the member qualifies for a HUD or PHA exception to the required Social Security Number. Selecting this option will show a drop-down menu. Select which exception is applicable.
C - Does not contend eligible immigration status
E - Age 62 and subsidized on 1/31/2010
M - New Member under age 6 (SSN must be entered within 180 days; not valid when completing Move In or Interim Certifications)
