deerpark 83 Posted September 4, 2020 Which forms require it and do you guys provide it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnnyB 4,289 Posted September 4, 2020 Sure.....They already have it anyway! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
InFamous 311 Posted September 4, 2020 Yes to prevent any delays. If someone has same or similar name with a record, it'll hold up your application. SS# alleviates this issue most of the time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pizza Bob 1,488 Posted September 4, 2020 I believe that it's optional, but it can help speed things up if there is somebody with similar name that is prohibited. Besides you're supplying it to a government entity.....what could possibly go wrong? Adios, Pizza Bob 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kc17 622 Posted September 4, 2020 As everyone else has stated, it can prevent delays (prevent delays, HA!). I usually include it; if I can't trust a FFL then I'm pretty much screwed. Fun fact.... The use your SSN (including who can force you to provide it) is regulated by (often ignored) Federal Laws. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kc17 622 Posted September 4, 2020 For a NICS it is voluntary, it says so right on the form. I don't recall for the FID or P2P. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnnyB 4,289 Posted September 4, 2020 FID and P2P both use the NJ STS-033 form and it does require your SS#. https://www.njsp.org/info/pdf/firearms/sts-033.pdf Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maintenanceguy 509 Posted September 5, 2020 It's voluntary but I figure I'm not going to keep the government from knowing it since they issued it to me. You're just a number in a database anyway. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
