1.0

Initial version.

Paul Sawyer

01/24/05

1.1

1.0

Changes following review:
Allow entry of 8 digits for password, advise caller that they might have
entered a password request code instead of a password, let 'em try
again.
Fix several Request IDs that had wrong number or code.

Paul Sawyer

01/27/05

1.2

1.0

Remove previous change to allow 8 digits for password entry – too
expensive to implement for now. Instead, edit the wording of prompts to
emphasize that passwords are 7 digits.
Revision marking from the previous version has been left in place since
some reviewers haven't finished reviewing yet.

Paul Sawyer

Chapter 1: Introduction
This document is one part of a set of documents that describe the user interface for the
Social Security Administration (SSA) Change of Address (COA) and Direct Deposit (DD)
application. This document describes only the interaction for Password authentication
(PPA). The call flow has passed through initial introduction and caller qualification before
getting to this section. A caller will pass through either this module, or through the
knowledge base authentication (KBA) module, but not both.
Note that this entire section is jumped into from the Global part of the application and
returns to it. The only entry point to this section is the beginning DM, 7000. Exit from this
section is by return to Global
The caller is not given a second chance to enter SSN or password, as is sometimes done in
other kinds of systems. Since both SSN and password are explicitly confirmed with the
caller, there is no point in putting the caller through a second attempt to enter these
numbers.

The password I'm referring to would have been chosen and registered by you online or
over the telephone. You would have received a password request code in the mail,
which you would have used along with your social security number and other
information to register a seven-digit password to access your personal benefit
information. If you've forgotten the password, you can request a new one using the
same process you used before. If you have this seven-digit password and you plan to
use it today, say the digits now or enter them on your telephone keypad. [2 sec pause] If
you DON'T have a password, say I Don’t Have One and we’ll confirm your identity

Note that the case of a caller not having a password at this point should be extremely rare since the caller already said (in Global or in
N8NN) that they DO have a password.
The option “I Don’t Have One” will need to be in a parallel grammar.
Turn Barge-in OFF in initial prompt to discourage callers from giving their SSN a second time.

Our records show that you requested that your account be
blocked from access by this automated system, as well as by the
Internet, even with a password, so I’ll need to send you to an
agent to complete this transaction. If you want to unblock your
account, the agent must handle that as well.
