If you are a new user, you must provide either your Social Security number or your 10-digit MSRS ID. This information will help us validate your identity to protect against potential unauthorized access to your account.

The 10-digit MSRS ID (also known as an Account ID #) appears on most correspondence you receive from MSRS, including statements and confirmations. For security purposes, MSRS cannot provide the 10-digit ID over the telephone; however, at your request, we can mail you the MSRS ID.

If you are a registered user, you may be required to enter the last 4-digits of your Social Security number if you forget your username and/or password.

Our website uses a 2-step verification process designed to protect against potential unauthorized access to your account. In addition to your username & password, we require your email address and phone number.

When you login, we will email, text or call you with a verification code to access your account. This additional security measure is a vital part of keeping your personal information safe and secure.

If you do not have an email address or phone number, you will not be able to access your account online.

Your email address and phone number will be used for security purposes and to restore access to your account. MSRS may also use your email or phone number to contact your regarding your account. We will not share your private data with other persons or agencies unless you or a court authorizes its release or is requested by a legislative auditor.

Our login includes a two-step verification process -- sometimes referred to as multi-factor authentication (MFA). This enhanced security is designed to protect against potential unauthorized account access. It's a vital part of keeping your personal information safe and secure.

Here's how it works: When you set up your login credentials, you are required to provide an email address and phone number.
