his estate didn't have to report his death because he wasn't receiving benefits and his beneficiary wasn't eligible for future benefits. This is what I have been told, i haven't looked into it just yet. From my understanding his social is active because it is used in conjunction with Amaru Entertainment. Im jsut curious to find out who certain people are who seem to pop up with almost every verified property address.
Actually it does NOT get passed along to someone else. According to the SSA, SSNs are not recycled. Upon an individual's death, the number is removed from the active files and is not reused. Recycling numbers might become an issue someday, but not any time soon -- statisticians say that the nine-digit SSN allows for approximately one billion possible combinations.
