Please Register or Sign In to submit requests for deceased individual’s SS-5 or Numident requests.  Visit our FOIA page for instructions on alternate submission options.

There are set fees for the SS-5 and Numident requests for a deceased individual. Payment is required if you are requesting a deceased individual’s SS-5 or Numident.  If you are not redirected to a page to submit payment, you have submitted your request incorrectly.

  • We will not process your request without payment.
  • If you are not directed to pay.gov to provide payment information, you have not selected the correct Request Type to receive a copy of a deceased individual’s SS-5 or Numident record.
