To obtain a Clear Registered Traveler card, an applicant provides the
company with his or her name, address, birth date, Social Security
number, and two forms of government-issued ID. Digital images of an
applicant's fingerprints and irises are made. The biographical and
digital information is then sent to the T.S.A., which checks it.
I should note that this information is NOT the same as was required by
the TSA to sign up for their free registered traveller program when I
signed up (and was approved) at DCA just over a year ago. The TSA did
NOT request (nor require) an SSN.
So, why is it that this private commercial enterprise DOES require
an SSN when the TSA itself did not?
