This Informational Letter (INF) clarifies the Department’s policy regarding social security number (SSN) requirements for immigrants applying for Medicaid and Family Health Plus (FHPlus) benefits. It also provides formats for two letters that social service districts must send to the federal Social Security Administration (SSA) to request SSNs for immigrants who are not authorized to work in the U.S. and who the districts have determined are otherwise eligible for federal or State Medicaid. Additionally, this INF introduces a new SSN Validation Code “N” (State Benefit Eligible Alien).
