As a customer who has a credit card, your information which is your name, address and your social security number will be saved and a file will be created for you, therefor any payments and transactions from your side will be forwarded to your credit history.
What will happen if you notice a mistake in your credit history? 60 Minutes video In this week did a 6 month observation on this issue about 40 Millions mistakes.

Afghanistan government has a huge problem about having a proper record of it's population. I think for Afghanistan it would be the right time to embed and start implementing the concept of e-government which connect government more closely to people.
Having the concept of Social Security Number for Afghans brings more opportunity even for peace keeping in country as it will prevent having multi Identification Number (tazkare) that terrorists use it to not be known and searched or even to have several passports which is illegal in every country.
However Information and Communication Technology has grown fast in Afghanistan and it can play a very influential role by involving to the concept of e-government in Afghanistan.
