Can I have my social security number changed due to identity theft?
ZL asked:
I have found out that my social security card number is being used by an EX relation. Credit cards are repeatedly issued in my name, and I have closed countless accounts over the years, but new cards keep getting issued in this person’s name with my social security number.

If I have documented proof of identity theft, would the Social Security Administration accept this as a valid reason to have my social security number changed? My credit is ruined because of this person.
If there is no way to get a new social security number, how can I ever restore my credit?
