How to Locate People by Social Security Number & Employment

Maybe you are interested in finding an old friend who you haven't seen in a while. Perhaps you are chasing your ex-husband for child support payments. Whatever the case, today it's easy to find people with their social security number, provided that you know where to look.

Instructions

1. Find a people-finding website that allows you to search by social security number (see resources). As of 2010, these services cost between $9.95 and $19.95 per search, depending on what information you need.

2. Enter the social security number and the last name if you have it.

3. Click on "Search" and within minutes you will have a report that may contain the person's full name, last known address, the state where the social security number was issued, the last known phone number, date of birth and a background check, which may include the person's criminal history, property owned and his employment history. The amount of information contained in the report will depend largely on how long the person resided at the address and how long they worked at a particular company. The site will tell you, before you make your purchase, exactly what information is available.
