TSA threatens to stop accepting driver's licenses from nine states as of Jan 10

True story, one of the credit agencies listed me as dead for quite a few years.

My father and I have the same name and I had rented his house in the past. Apparently, when he died and, acting as the agent of his estate, I cancelled his credit cards, at least one card company in concert with the credit agency, got me instead of him.

I found this out when refinancing my house. We thought it was weird and we thought we got it addressed electronically. Three years latrer, it happened again. I had to write a letter, include my fatherā€™s death certificate, and point out that the person with my name and this social security number was dead but the one with that number was me, and alive.

I think it is cleared up now.

Yeah, thatā€™s pretty cool.

Not so here in WI. Itā€™s a totally independent process and particularly annoying for the poor/unlucky. Itā€™s not like we couldnā€™t just use our heavily audited Medicaid Member database or Food Share membership to cover those guys, but nahā€¦thatā€™d be all convenient for them. Canā€™t have that!
