Información para el Empleador en Español


Attention all Employers and Organizational Representative Payees, to access BSO:

Your BSO User ID and password is no longer used to access BSO employer services or organizational representative payee services. You must have a Social Security username/password, Login.gov, or ID.me credential to gain access to the BSO application.

If you do not have any of these accounts, you will need to create a Login.gov or ID.me account. Select "Create account" in the "Employers" or "Representative Payees" box. If you already have a Login.gov or ID.me account, select 'Log in'.

Please note that you do NOT need to create a new Login.gov or ID.me credential specifically for SSA purposes. You can use your existing Login.gov or ID.me credentials to log into SSA services.

We encourage you to sign in to transition your account now - it only takes a few minutes. If you already have Login.gov, or ID.me account, you do not have to create another one.
