Beginning March 27, 2023, our Personator Web Service will no longer support Name to Social Security Number verification and reverse appends.
We find that the data and functionality currently being provided in Personator for SSN verification do not meet the standard and qualifications that we want the product to achieve. Instead, Melissa has developed a newer and more accurate API for Social Security verification called the SSN Verification Web Service. We are currently recommending clients who currently leverage SSN Verification in Personator to make use of this new API as the replacement solution.
To see the full advisory, which includes information on how to access the new SSN Web Service, please use the following link:

Thank you for your attention to this update and we appreciate your patience. Please rest assured Melissa continuously strives to support all of our products, data and services, whenever possible. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Tech Support at tech@melissa.com or call 1 (800) 800-6245 x4.
