"...a stricter identity-proofing policy that will require millions of beneficiaries to set up an account online or show up in person at an agency field office or nearby post office. ...SSA beneficiaries will have to verify their identity through the agency’s “my Social Security” online platform or show up at an SSA field office or post office to complete the verification process. ...a narrower set of identity-proofing changes will now go into effect on April 14. ...Those unable to verify their identity through the agency’s “my Social Security” online service would be required to visit an agency field office in person to complete the verification process. ...SSA is looking to partner with the Postal Service and allow SSA beneficiaries to verify their identity in person at thousands of post offices across the country.
USPS offers in-person identity proofing services at 19,000 post office locations across the country — a much larger footprint than SSA’s approximately 1,230 field offices. USPS has expanded its identity-proofing capabilities in recent years and is already working with several agencies to provide these services.
USPS, working with the General Services Administration, allows federal agencies to obtain or renew their Personal Identity Verification (PIV) cards at post offices across the country. It’s also working with the Labor Department to offer in-person identity proofing for people looking to apply for unemployment insurance.
About 99% of the U.S. population lives within 10 miles of their nearest post office. "
