English term or phrase: AAA-GG-SSSS FC mm-dd-yyyy
I am translating a transcript from a US university and next to the date of birth of the student, there is a social security number (AAA-GG-SSSS), the code 'FC' and a date.

Can somebody explain what the 'FC' and the date refer to?

The residence status is 'resident' and the student was not born in the United States.

Selected answer:area-group-serial
Explanation:
A Social Security Number (SSN) consists of nine digits, commonly written as
three fields separated by hyphens: AAA-GG-SSSS. The first three-digit field
is called the "area number". The central, two-digit field is called the
"group number". The final, four-digit field is called the "serial number". Not sure what FC stands for though...
