Do I Have to Give SS Number for a Loan?

If you're wondering if you have to give out your social security number to get a loan, the answer is yes. At least for any organization that is reputable. Any company offering to give you money without first getting your SS number is likely not all that on the "up and up". In fact if you borrow money from an organization that does not ask for your social security number in return, your body may be at risk if you default more than your credit rating. If that's a risk you're willing to take, you likely have bigger issues than money will fix.
