Use application site, should I still require SSN on file?

[Jennifer Osborne]

I use mysmartmove to do credit checks, background checks, eviction checks, etc. Should I still require a separate application and/or should I require SSN#'s on file to continue to check on tenants?

I don't think it would be necessary.  

Do you mean you'd like to run additional credit checks and background screenings while they occupy your rental?  I have never done that, unless a new tenant moves in.  Which they would be required to go through the process as well.
