I have no idea how this works, but I have a true story anecdote.I would hope that knowing your SS# would be sufficient.
Years ago, during the Bush II administration, my partner worked for a big auto parts manufacturer. It had a bunch of employees who were central American. He had a bad accident, was off work for a few weeks. Then he returned to "light duty", which meant a desk job. The management put him in accounting and payroll.
He noticed that 7 employees all had the same SSI number. He mentioned that to his boss. She just kinda laughed and said, "Yeah, so?"
I asked a lawyer friend of mine how companies got away with stuff like that. He told me, "The government loves that stuff. A bunch of Mexican people paying in SSI taxes, who will never expect benefits from SSI. They are not going to interfere."
