Section 10:167B-6.7 - Social Security account number

(a) Senior Gold applicants are not required to submit their Social Security Account Number (SSAN); however, failure to provide it will delay the processing of their application. Each applicant for Senior Gold benefits must include his or her SSAN on the application/reapplication form. The SSAN is a unique and verifiable number which is utilized to differentiate between persons with the same name. Married persons are asked to also indicate the SSAN of their spouse.

(b) In the event that the applicant does not have a SSAN, a unique identifying number will be assigned by the Program. This number will be used throughout the beneficiary's Senior Gold eligibility.
