In response to requests from the public, functionality was added to the U.S. Party/Case Index which allows a customer to search by the last four digits of the Social Security Number when combined with at least three characters of the last name. Previously, the complete Social Security Number was required. The search functionality at the individual PACER and CM/ECF sites has not changed.

To use the new functionality, login into the U.S. Party/Case Index. From the main menu, click on the "Bankruptcy" search. Enter the last four digits of the Social Security Number along with at least three characters of the last name, then click "Search." If you are searching with the entire Social Security Number or Tax Identification Number, the party name is not required.

If you have any questions, please contact the PACER Service Center at pacer@psc.uscourts.gov.
