If you need to register as an employee with Social Security, it is mandatory that you complete and submit Form TA1, which is the application form to register with Social Security. If you have a digital certificate or Cl@ve, you can make the request through the Electronic Office of Social Security.
What is the Form TA1 of Social Security?
The Form TA1 is the application form that you must fill in to proceed with the affiliation with Social Security and get a Social Security number assigned to you if you have not been previously registered. The employer who is going to hire a worker who does not have a Social Security Number must request it since this is the number that identifies the citizen before this Administration.
Here, in the Form TA1 of Social Security, you have to fill in the following data:
Applicant details:
- Name and surname.
- Gender: Indicate H (man) or M (woman).
- Type of Identification Document: You must mark with an “X” (National Identity Document -DNI-, Foreign Identity Card or Passport).
- The number of the Identity Document.
- Social Security number: In the case of a data change request, the worker’s Social Security number (also called “affiliation number”) must be specified in the Form.
- Degree of disability: if you are a person with a disability, the degree of disability should be indicated in accordance with the assessment report made by the IMSERSO or by the competent body of the Autonomous Community.
- Address: you must indicate the type of road (street, square, path, passage, etc.) and the name of the public road, without abbreviations.
- Municipality and province.
- Telematic Data (telephone and email): The recording of this data implies the acceptance of informative notifications from Social Security.
Information related to the application (you must mark an X in the corresponding box):
- Affiliation to Social Security.
- Assignment of the Social Security number.
- Data modification.
-Data related to the notifications:
- Place, date and signature of the applicant.
- Place, date and signature of the employer (if applicable).
Subsequently, you will be given a receipt for completing the Social Security Affiliation Application, Assignment of a Social Security Number, and Data Modification (Form TA1). The data displayed in this form will be incorporated into the General Affiliation File (“Fichero General de Afiliación”).
Who can request Form TA1?
The Social Security Affiliation Number, as well as registration to the system, may be requested by the following entities/people:
- The company that is going to hire a worker who does not have a Social Security Number, since it is obliged to do so. If the company does not carry out the procedure, the employee may also request it.
- Self-employed workers who start an economic activity and are not registered yet.
- The Provincial Directorates of the General Treasury of Social Security or its Administrations, when they have proof that a worker is not registered. For example, in the event that a labor inspector detects it.
The Application Form TA1 must be addressed to the Provincial Directorate of the General Treasury of Social Security or to the Administration of the province where the company in which you work is registered. Likewise, you can submit it to the tax address of the self-employed worker.
Keep in mind that the request must be made before the employee begins to provide their services to a company. It can be done 60 calendar days prior to the work year.
