More often than once a month, I would estimate, I get a 1695 with an attorney's SSN unmasked (and these are often very prominent, likely wealthy attorneys). I would recommend you freeze your credit if you are a SS rep who ever submits 1695s. I do send an assistance request to the FO each time asking them to mask the SSN, but I get tired of seeing this simple mistake happening time and again, and am waiting to hear the story of some big attorney getting his identity stolen, if it hasn't happened already...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19246708.post-73712774693941518862015-05-05T10:35:50.044-04:002015-05-05T10:35:50.044-04:00Anon 2:06: I was responding specifically to the e...Anon 2:06: I was responding specifically to the electronically submitted 1695. In EDCS, the CR must decide whether to retain an electronically submitted document in the EF. The CR should not retain the 1695. Instead they print it and then process using normaly instructions, which include what you posted.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19246708.post-49249309792040799642015-05-05T02:06:12.152-04:002015-05-05T02:06:12.152-04:00Anon who posted 2nd is WRONG.

It is policy to: 1) mask the rep's ssn, 2) "write processed on _____", 3) if no EIN is listed, the CR writes "no EIN" (to deter a rep adding it later), 4) FAX TO EF, 5) mail back to rep with letter that acknowledges receipt. <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19246708.post-45408416511454480782015-05-04T18:12:08.687-04:002015-05-04T18:12:08.687-04:00I have seen 1695s in the EF, including one or two ...I have seen 1695s in the EF, including one or two without the PII obscured.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19246708.post-10856808624227144942015-05-04T12:53:45.375-04:002015-05-04T12:53:45.375-04:00There are instructions for this.
