Well to release the package to me they needed my social security number. BUT, they would not take it verbally over the phone. They needed written proof. Why? because as the customs lady explained, homeland security had audited DHL and found out that people had lied to them about their SSN. So, Now DHL requires written proof of your SSN. to clear customs. I was given two options: Provide a Copy of your social secuity card front and back, or provide a copy of your Tax forms with the financial data blacked out. Whatever, the stuff is headed my way.
