Number and claimant surname on your File Forms page. Other fields should
be used only to search for the claim when the Claim Number is
not available. 000-00-0000 is not a search parameter, it
simply means that no valid Social Security or Federal Tax ID
number was provided.

means that copies be sent

submitted form from View Claim Documents after submission.

the form without input into the "required" field.
