I have a fraud alert on my credit report, can I create a My Social Security account?
================
It's only a fraud report or do you also have a security freeze?
Just the fraud report.
Have you requested a temporary lift for your fraud report?
I have, yes.
You can create your account. The Identity Services Provider may reinstate your fraud report after the temporary lift expires.
So I can create the account no problem?
Yes, you can do it while the temporary lift is still active.
================
What would I be asked for when creating the account?
You'll be asked to verify your identity, this will be done by asking you some personal questions about yourself. Then you'll get asked to create your account's username and password.
================
Can I let other people use my account?
No, the account can be created and used exclusively by you.
================
Ok. What else will I need to do after creating my username and password?
After creating your account's username and password, you'll have to confirm your email or phone number by entering a one-time security code within 10 minutes.
