Forgotten username or password to my Social Security account

How do I retrieve my username or password if I have forgotten it?


To retrieve your username:

  • Go to Forgot Username; and
  • Enter your name, Social Security number, and date of birth.

Your user name will display in the "username" field of the sign-in screen.

For security reasons, we do not have a record of your password.

To reset your password:

  • Enter your name, Social Security number, and date of birth; and
  • Answer three identity-verification questions.

We will ask you to create and confirm a new password once we have successfully established your identity.

Give us some feedback.
