US Social Security Number (SSN) Trace
A US social security number (SSN) trace identifies names and addresses associated with a candidate's SSN.

Prior to reporting any identified criminal records from this database, Certn conducts a search in the county where a possible record has been identified to ensure that only the most up to date and complete information on a candidate is reported. Any county searches performed to verify information found on this database are at the central courthouse in a specified county which houses the majority of felony and misdemeanor records for that county. Note that additional fees for searches of primary source jurisdictions may apply. Sources of information include state administrative office of the courts, department of corrections, state sex offender registries, pardon and parole boards, and hundreds of other state and county public record repositories.
