Claimants who have previously established their age in connection with a claim for
benefits with SSA or an SSN application (“P” (Pre-age 5 State, Local, or Foreign Public Birth Certificate) or “B” (preferred proof) code on the NUMIDENT) will not be required to resubmit evidence
of age if they later refile, unless the adjudicator has reason to question the accuracy
of the proven age. If there is a reason to question the date of birth and needs correction,
technicians must follow GN 00203.030B.
