The Social Security Administration's Work History Verification Website Should Be Restored, eliminating fees and delays.

Created by S.R. on November 27, 2011

The website allowed job seekers a chance to verify their work history quickly and conveniently, reducing joblessness and the costs of unemployment to us all. This has been eliminated and replaced with form SSA-7050. Without the website the process takes at least four months and can cost hundreds of dollars in fees to the job seeker. Major corporations have imposed fees on verifying an individuals work history. When a prospective employer seeks to verify a person's work history, they can pay a fee to verify each previous job on a person's resume. Restoring the website makes financial sense for the SSA, for major corporations, for job seekers and the unemployed.
