Learn About Verification

Verification

Online verification provides a quick way to access your Selective Service registration number and date of registration. After retrieving your registration information online, you have the option to print an official letter of verification from Selective Service.

Online verification of Selective Service registration requires a social security number and is only available for men born on or after January 1, 1960.

 

Verify Registration

No SSN

If you are unable to verify online because you do not have a social security number, please call us at 888.655.1825 (Toll-free).

Bulk Verification

To process multiple Selective Service registration verifications at one time, contact Selective Service web service at: bulkregver@sss.gov

After you register, you are required to update your registration information within 10 days, until January 1 of the year you turn 26. Corrections take 30 days to process, after which we will mail you a new acknowledgment card.

  • Your home address changes
  • Your name on file with Selective Service is misspelled
  • You legally changed your name, indicate the new name, provide a copy of the court order for your legal name change and supporting documentation
