United Kingdom National Insurance Number

 

Identity Finder will locate United Kingdom National Insurance Numbers without requiring you to provide any personal information.  It uses the AnyFind proprietary technology to find valid National Insurance Numbers.  If you want to search for only a specific National Insurance Number, you should disable AnyFind and add your National Insurance Number to the Unique Identity Include List.  National Insurance Numbers are used in the United Kingdom and can be used to open credit cards and bank accounts on your behalf, so searching for this Identity Match Type is of critical importance, if you are from the United Kingdom.

 

By default, Identity Finder will not search for National Insurance Numbers.  However, you may customize this behavior.

 

If you are using the Startup Wizard, you can choose Yes to AnyFind Worldwide Searching and then select "National Insurance Number" option.

 

If you are not using the Startup Wizard, you can enable or disable AnyFind Worldwide Searching for National Insurance Numbers by first clicking the Settings button on the Tools and Options ribbon, then selecting the Worldwide Search page from the left menu.  Click the Enable National Insurance Number (NINO) Search checkbox.  This will alter the appearance of your What to Search for ribbon and add "UK: NINO" to the AnyFind Automatic Search group.  It will be also now be enabled and ready for searching.  When the button has an orange highlight, it is enabled and Identity Finder will use AnyFind searching.  You can also Add a National Insurance Number to the Unique Identity Include List via the "Include List" page of the "Identity Finder Personal Information File" dialog box (you can open this dialog box by pushing the Add/Remove Information button on the What to Search for ribbon).  Within that dialog box, when National Insurance Number is selected in the "Identity Type" drop down box, you can check or uncheck the "Enable Automatic Search for National Insurance Numbers" to change your AnyFind settings for National Insurance Numbers.  The ribbon button will update automatically to reflect any changes you make here.

 

Note: You will not see the UK: NINO or United Kingdom National Insurance Number options in the AnyFind Automatic Search or Unique Identity Include List unless you have Enabled Worldwide Searching.
