Part 1: Your Personal Identification Number & Your Address

Your PIN is a 4-digit number you make up before you apply. Your pin and your social security number will be used to identify you and must be used when accessing Telephone or Internet services.

Make up a PIN that you will remember but is hard for others to guess. Do not give your PIN to ANYONE. You’re responsible for all claims filed and all information given to this department using your PIN and social security number.

If you forget your PIN, or believe someone else knows it, you should change your PIN immediately by calling one of the initial claim application telephone numbers and pressing 4 to change your PIN.
