What identifiers do you require of your donors? We have two centers, at one almost all of the donors will give their SS#, at the other almost none will.

It is in our SOPs that we "prefer" the SS# as a form of identification, but we will allow the DOB as the second form of ID.

Does anyone require a SS#?

On the donor questionnaire, we request the SSN or driver's license number. Isn't there a regulation about needing positive identification? To fill this regulation we asked to see a photo ID (such as DL) first, then, if that is not available we have various IDs that can be used (ex. credit card with picture, medical card, etc.) We also emphasize that they need to bring the photo ID when they make their appointments.
