What is the "Not valid for employment" mean?

In the My Info section of the program, where you enter your personal information, on the screen for entering your Social Security number is a box labeled - Not valid for employment.  That box is probably checked and you need to uncheck that box.

Click on My Info on the left side of the online program screen and edit your personal inforamtion.

That suggests that while you were going through the questions in MY INFO you clicked a wrong answer when it asked if your Social Security card(s) say "not valid for employment."----Click your name in MY INFO and go through the questions again-----very slowly and very carefully so that you do not miss that or answer incorrectly.
