What documentation is NOT acceptable for SSN verification?

A handwritten note with a Social Security Number (SSN) is not considered acceptable documentation for SSN verification because it lacks the formality and reliability of official government-issued documents. Official documents, such as an original SSN card issued by the Social Security Administration (SSA), original documents from a government agency, or an original document issued by the SSA, provide verified and consistent identification of the SSN holder and are designed to establish identity and eligibility for programs like the Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) program. Handwritten notes do not carry the same level of authenticity or security, making them an inadequate means of verifying such sensitive and critical information.
