Improving Social Security’s Service to Victims of Identity Theft Act

Sponsored By: Representative Kustoff

Passed House

Summary

Creates a dedicated single point of contact at the Social Security Administration to help people whose Social Security number was misused or whose SSN card was lost in transit. The Commissioner must set up procedures so a trained team tracks each identity-theft case to completion and coordinates across SSA units to fix records and benefit problems. The team can change composition as needed but must keep continuity of records and notify the individual when appropriate. The new section takes effect 180 days after enactment and focuses on agency procedures and case accountability.
