  <title><![CDATA[
Evidence Requirements for Assignment of Social Security Numbers  (SSNs); Assignment of SSNs to Foreign Academic]]></title>
  <link>http://thefederalregister.com/d.p/2003-12-16-03-30965</link>
  <description><![CDATA[ We propose to clarify our rules for assigning SSNs to foreign 
academic students in Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services 
(BCIS, formerly the Immigration and Naturalization Service or INS) 
classification status F1 (referred to throughout this preamble as F1 
students). Specifically, we propose to add additional evidentiary 
requirements for F1 students who are applying for an SSN. In addition 
to meeting SSA's requirement to provide evidence of age, identity, 
legal alien status, and work authorization, F1 students would also be 
required to present evidence that employment has been secured before we 
will assign the F1 student an SSN. These rules would further enhance 
the integrity of SSA's enumeration processes for assigning SSNs by 
reducing the opportunity for fraud through misuse of SSNs.
