What happens if I forget my TreasuryDirect username?

Asked 4 months ago
If a user forgets their TreasuryDirect username, they can retrieve it by utilizing the "Forgot Your Username?" option available on the TreasuryDirect.gov login page. To initiate this process, the user will be prompted to provide certain identifying information associated with their account, such as the primary Social Security number and the email address linked to their TreasuryDirect account. Once this information is submitted, the user will receive their username via email. It is important for users to ensure that they have access to the email account they registered with. In case they do not have access to this email or face any other difficulties, it is advisable to refer to the current version of the TreasuryDirect.gov website for detailed guidance on recovery options or further contact information. Remember, maintaining secure access to account details is essential, so it may be beneficial to update personal records frequently.
