I cannot find my father in the US Social Security Index. Why would he not be there?
He was born in 1934 and died in 2012.

Did he actually receive Social Secueirty Benefits?
The most probable reason is that certain submissions since a given date have not been updated. The SSDI database is not a databsse that has continually been updated up till now.
It stopped being updated (in FS) around the time your father died.
I would imagine though that you may still be able to get records - if they exist - directly from the SS administaration.

The US SSDI on FamilySearch is current through February 28, 2014. https://www.familysearch.org/search/collection/1202535

yes - but Im not sure that technically means that a person who died in 2013 - necessarily means they are for sure to be in the file.
I think it simply means - whatever version of the file existed in Feb 2014 is what we have.
what rules controlled what was in that file at that time . . . Im not sure.

Amy, would you be willing to share the PID of your father from the FamilySearch Family Tree? I'd like to see if I can find the record of your father in the US SSDI.
