SOCIAL SECURITY ONLINE VERIFICATION NOTICE
Wisconsin Department of Transportation MV3748 9/2006

Driver Records Matched with Social Security Records Wisconsin has electronically compared the name, date of birth, gender and Social Security Number (SSN) of licensed drivers or identification card holders with the records from the Social Security Administration (SSA). During this process, a discrepancy with either your name, date of birth or gender did not match SSA's records. Name O.K. but Error in Birth or Gender If the name on your SSN card matches the name on your driver license or identification card, then there is a discrepancy with either your date of birth or gender. You must visit an SSA Office to resolve the discrepancy. This requires requesting a replacement SSN card in your current name. You must bring proof of identity and/or proof of your date of birth or gender to the SSA office. Name is Different; SSN Card is Correct If the name on your SSN card is your legal name, but different than the name on your driver license or identification card, they must be the same before your renewal can be processed. If the SSN card is correct, bring your SSN card and some documents to make the change on the driver license or identification card. To complete the renewal transaction, bring a certified document as proof of your current name to the Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT). The certified document must be the same as the name on your SSN card. Any of the items listed above and a source document that links the name on the SSN card with your current name is required. Examples of a source document are: marriage license, divorce decree, or adoption court order. For information on acceptable documents for WisDOT for proof of name and birth date, see our web site: http://www.dot.wisconsin.gov/drivers/drivers/apply/doc/proof-dob.htm Name is Different; SSN Card is Incorrect If the name on your SSN card is not your legal name, you must visit an SSA Office to resolve the discrepancy. This requires requesting a duplicate SSN card in your current name. You must bring proof of identity and/or proof of your date of birth or gender to the SSA office. To change the name shown on your SSN card, complete form SS-5.

Documents for SSN Card Name Change Submit one or more documents identifying you by both your OLD NAME and your NEW NAME. Some documents that show your old name, new name and identifying information include your marriage certificate, divorce decree or a court order changing your name. If you were born outside of the U.S., submit proof of your U.S. citizenship or lawful alien status. All documents must be either originals or copies certified by the issuing agency. We cannot accept photocopies of documents. Notarized copies also are not acceptable.

Bring the replacement SSN card in person to your local DMV Service Center to make the corrections to your driver record. If you come to the DMV Service Center before you receive your replacement SSN card, you will be sent away without a driver license or identification card. An updated replacement SSN card will be electronically verified with SSA before DMV records are updated. If you have any questions, please contact us at 608-264-7049 or e-mail: [email protected].
