Bankers Seeking Continued Access to the Death Master File
Access to the Death Master File, the list maintained by the Social Security Administration for fraud protection, insurance matters, compliance and other reasons, is to be restricted to certified personnel only beginning March 26, 2014. Unfortunately, no rule has yet been created to establish the certification program. ABA is seeking a clarification that access to the DMF will continue until the certification program is ready to go.
