You need to ask the concerned person.I am currently stating my problem and I am not the only person having that.Many places takes fingerprints for record like for SSN in USA but they don't match them electronically afaik
Then one person must have multiple SSN in USA in multiple states just like we have multiple driving licence in India as there is no centralised database to check whether that person already have opted SSN(driving licence in India case) in other states or not.
