But, bare in mind, it took a lot of time and aggravation to clear this situation. I only wonder now what type of risk we are at with the ssn on the label. It is not hidden at all, it simply has a few numbers above your name, then it has HRB123456789_2004.........very clear what it is, I am not a happy camper and have been terrified with the fact that someone may now have this most important information. What really steamed me was the letter they sent making light of such a life destroying situation if it would happen to get into the wrong hands. Thanks for sharing your info...Restless over this situation I was sure not happy about the situation with the ssn on our mailing label, as last year someone used my husband’s name and dob in an arrest situation, and it was not an easy situation to straighten out, the only thing that saved us was that the person did not know the ssn, and the picture match of my husband and the person who was incarcerated.
