Social Security question

 I’ve been answering questions about Social Security lately and here’s another: Are Social Security numbers reused after a person dies?

No. They do not reassign a Social Security number (SSN) after the number holder's death. Even though they have issued over 453 million SSNs so far, and they assign about 5 and one-half million new numbers a year, the current numbering system will provide them with enough new numbers for several generations into the future with no changes in the numbering system.
