The Social Security Number identifies the citizen in relation to their interactions with Social Security. We explain how to apply for it step by step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is vital to request the Social Security number because in the same way that we have a DNI or NIE, this is assigned due to our relationship with Social Security and it is used to identify us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This Social Security number is maintained throughout our life and will be necessary when applying for medical assistance, registering as an employee, collecting benefits, or receiving a retirement pension.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Social Security number is granted by the General Treasury of Social Security (TGSS), which is the body that is responsible for the enrollments, applications, and discharges of employees. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
As explained by the Ministry of Labor, Migration and Social Security, the Social Security Number (NUSS) is the personal identifier of each citizen in their relationship with Social Security. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The NUSS is mandatory for anyone who is a beneficiary of pensions, subsidies, or Social Security benefits, and it must be available in advance for membership or registration in any Social Security system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This identifier is essential to request inclusion in the health system unless the person accesses as a beneficiary of the number of another holder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Is the NUSS the same as the Social Security Affiliation Number (NAF)? The answer is yes, both numbers coincide. The NUSS becomes the NAF when a person first starts a job that determines his inclusion in the Social Security System.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
All citizens, employees, and self-employed people who do not have a Social Security number can apply for one. Also, the employer must request the Social Security number of the person they are going to hire if they do not have one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
